Created first version of naming convention page

New page

This page documents the naming conventions used in the project. When in doubt, follow [[wikipedia:Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style|Wikipedia's Manual of Style]].

== Labels ==

Labels use '''sentence case''' in English (following English grammar rules) and '''capitalised nouns''' in German (following German grammar rules).

Item and category labels follow these patterns:

* '''<code><Begriff></code>''' — Student can define the term and describe the concept.
* '''<code>Overview of <Begriff></code>''' — Student can name, describe, and classify individual parts of the concept.
* '''<code>Using <Begriff></code>''' — Student can apply the concept in practice.

=== Examples ===

{| class="wikitable"
! Type !! Label !! Description !! Category
|-
| Topic || <code>Human-Computer Interaction</code> || A field of research and practice focusing on the interaction between humans and computers. || <code>Human-Computer Interaction</code>
|-
| Topic || <code>Conducting an HCI Experiment</code> || Knowledge and practice in designing, running, and analyzing experiments. ||
|-
| Category || <code>Human-Computer Interaction</code> || Category: Human-Computer Interaction. ||
|}

== Sessions ==

Session labels follow the pattern '''[Session title], [Abbreviation] [Semester]''', and aliases follow '''[Abbreviation] [Semester] - [YYYY-MM-DD]''' ([[wikipedia:ISO_8601|ISO 8601]]).

{{Note|text="The course abbreviation is appended as a suffix so that generic titles like "Introduction and Overview" remain unambiguous across courses."}}

'''Label examples:'''
* <code>Introduction and Overview, EIMI 26SS</code>
* <code>Studies and Experiments, HCI 26SS</code>
* <code>Intro, ProPä 26SS</code>

'''Alias examples:'''
* <code>EIMI 26SS - 2026-04-17</code>
* <code>HCI 26SS - 2026-06-24</code>

The semester is formatted as <code>[YY][SS/WS]</code> (e.g. <code>26SS</code>, <code>25WS</code>). Do '''not''' use the full course title from the course catalogue as the session title. Mind capitalisation — e.g. <code>LLMs in research</code>, not <code>Llms in research</code>.

'''Course abbreviations:'''

{| class="wikitable"
! Course !! Abbreviation
|-
| Propädeutikum || <code>ProPä</code>
|-
| Einführung in die Medieninformatik || <code>EIMI</code>
|-
| Human-Computer Interaction || <code>HCI</code>
|-
| ''...'' || <code>''...''</code>
|}
