BTW is case sensitive. Which causes a lot of unneeded edits and redirects imho, because you often need to correct uppercase/lowercase spelling in article links or image file names. It's a major nuisance imho, and makes BTW less user friendly.

Would it be possible to somehow abolish sensitivity on the Wiki except for article titles?
It's gotten better in the last upgrade (I think) because first letters are now not case sensitive anymore, but it remains a problem especially for filenames. I hate having to change .jpg to .JPG in links, for example.

Case Sensitivity normal means when you type in your user name and password then the letters that you original entered that where capitalized need to be that way or you will not be allowed to login.

File names, or URLs, are normally converted into lowercase by the browser, though a few sites you still need to keep caps in use. The Wiki here at Sarna seems to be a entity all to its' self. It does not run as smooth as the Wookiepedia SW wiki and is not as user friendly either.
