I’m using the brilliant ExpressionEngine Wiki Module to jot down some links and notes as I’m trying to learn about my new iMac and exploring its features. I just noticed this – the wiki titles are case insensitive! Coming from MediaWiki, where the titles are case sensitive, I’ve been following this rule of making only the first letter in the title of a page Upper case, and then any other letter in the title all lower case, so as not to confuse myself. Now I don’t have to do that any more!
I feel tempted to go and rename all of my existing wiki titles. In keeping with my naming convention I have titles like Pmachine and Itunes and Htaccess and they all look weird.
I might just put all my notes in a new wiki and make it public. (My main wiki is private – sorry.) It may or may not be of any use to anyone else. Anyway, there are already wikis devoted to this topic already – for example, this Mac Beginner’s Guide from Mac Rumors.
Now. I’ve finished writing up yet another reason I love EE. Back to playing.
Edit: By the way, I’d better clarify something. You can’t really make the wiki itself private. What you can do is create a new template, put the wiki display tag in that template, and then restrict access to that template.

I just luvvvv the wiki. I’ve made almost a dozen themes for it already.
I’m using it for client notes on some sites. This is faster than forum entries or email.

They are so easy to do.. it’s a matter of finding a basic template and then wikifying it.
I’ll write up a howto probably tomorrow.
