Confluence Docs 3.0 : CamelCase linking This page last changed on Mar 30, 2009 by ggaskell. CamelCase is a form of markup used in many wikis where words capitalized and compounded together without spaces LikeThis, are used to create links. By default, CamelCasing is not enabled in Confluence. However, a site administrator can turn on CamelCasing from the Administration Console. For more information about activating CamelCase Links, see Enabling CamelCase Linking in the Administrators Guide. To link to a page in the same space using CamelCase linking
What you need to type | What you will get
--- | ---
CamelCasePage | CamelCasePage
where: 'CamelCasePage' is the name of the page you want to link to. To link to a page you intend to create later (undefined page) using CamelCase linking Confluence allows you to create links first and add add content to pages later. This type of a link is an undefined link and is indicated with the plus sign. Clicking on the link will bring up a screen where you can add content for the page.

NonExistentPage | [NonExistentPage]
where: 'NonExistentPage' is the title of the page you intend to create later. To ensure a CamelCase word does not become a link (Confluence 2.1.3 or later) Sometimes you may wish to use a CamelCase word in a page, but do not want it to be drawn as a link. You can accomplish this using the {nolink} macro:
What you need to type | What you will get
--- | ---
{nolink:SomeWord} | SomeWord
{nl:SomeWord} | SomeWord
{nolink} and {nl} do the same thing, just use whichever you find more convenient. The {nolink} and {nl} macros are only available in Confluence 2.1.3 or later. In versions of Confluence prior to 2.1.3, there is no way to prevent a CamelCase word from becoming a link short of disabling CamelCase linking across the entire Confluence site. ##### RELATED TOPICS Working with links Enabling CamelCase Linking Nolink and nl Macros Take me back to Confluence User Guide
