title.txt
-The MediaWiki software's "Title" class represents article
-titles, which are used for many purposes: as the human-readable
-text title of the article, in the URL used to access the article,
-the wikitext link to the article, the key into the article
-database, and so on. The class in instantiated from one of
-these forms and can be queried for the others, and for other
-attributes of the title. This is intended to be an
-immutable "value" class, so there are no mutator functions.

-To get a new instance, call Title::newFromText(). Once instantiated,

-return false if the text is illegal according to the rules below.

-The prefix rules: a title consists of an optional interwiki
-prefix (such as "m:" for meta or "de:" for German), followed
-by an optional namespace, followed by the remainder of the
-title. Both interwiki prefixes and namespace prefixes have
-the same rules: they contain only letters, digits, space, and
-underscore, must start with a letter, are case insensitive,
-and spaces and underscores are interchangeable. Prefixes end
-with a ":". A prefix is only recognized if it is one of those
-specifically allowed by the software. For example, "de:name"
-is a link to the article "name" in the German Wikipedia, because
-"de" is recognized as one of the allowable interwikis. The
-title "talk:name" is a link to the article "name" in the "talk"
-namespace of the current wiki, because "talk" is a recognized
-namespace. Both may be present, and if so, the interwiki must
-come first, for example, "m:talk:name". If a title begins with
-a colon as its first character, no prefixes are scanned for,
-and the colon is just removed. Note that because of these
-rules, it is possible to have articles with colons in their
-names. "E. Coli 0157:H7" is a valid title, as is "2001: A Space
-Odyssey", because "E. Coli 0157" and "2001" are not valid
-interwikis or namespaces.

-An initial colon in a title listed in wiki text may however
-suppress special handling for interlanguage links, image links,
-and category links. It is also used to indicate the main
-namespace in template inclusions.

-All titles except special pages must be less than 255 bytes when

-getArticleID() needs some explanation: for "internal" articles,
-it should return the "page_id" field if the article exists, else
-it returns 0. For all external articles it returns 0. All of
-the IDs for all instances of Title created during a request are
-cached, so they can be looked up quickly while rendering wiki
-text with lots of internal links. See linkcache.txt.
