: That makes sense. It occurred to me too, but I wasn't sure about using some kind of "(menu)" title suffix, as I've not seen any consistent examples of that. As long as the style is consistent, I think this is a good solution. On that note: Perhaps [[Menu_symbols]], or even [[Menu_objects_symbols]] might be better? "_" delimeters, representing specific structure of phrasing, rather than parentheses, seem to be more in-keeping with page naming style consistency, particularly regarding specific interface/file terminology. Even more so when it is representing some logical structure relating to the interface or files.

− | :: Now I've said that, I'm probably thinking too much about filename | + | :: Now I've said that, I'm probably thinking too much about filename structres. I assume you the title is whatever the page is, so "Menu objects symbols". If you can make the page name that, but the title Symbols (menu) this would be the best of both worlds though. I am particularly thinking of page names for categories and templates. It's really just personal preference after linking lots of pages for templates etc. I can't recall if a page name and page title can be separate things, though...

::: There's no distinction between page titles and names. I used [[Symbols (menu)]] because parenthetical disambiguation is the standard on wikipedia (see [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Disambiguation#Naming_the_specific_topic_articles here]). I think [[Symbols menu]] would also be fine. Something like "Menu objects symbols" doesn't make sense to me, page names/titles should be readable and there's no need to reflect an in-game heirarchy. —[[User:OddballJoe|OddballJoe]] ([[User talk:OddballJoe|talk]]) 04:12, 14 March 2023 (UTC) | ::: There's no distinction between page titles and names.
