Use Curly Braces "{{Like}}" that.

For works whose names are one word long, both Namespace/{{Name}} and {{Namespace/Name}} work. Both of these work if the namespace is also one word long.

Both work regardless of namespace length. ''{{WesternAnimation/Rugrats}}'' makes Rugrats.

^I know. That's why I said if the namespace is also one word long; I wasn't excluding namespaces with more than one word.

Enclosing the namespace in curly braces is unnecessary and deprecated. Just Namespace/{{Title}} is enough.

^^ You conditioned your statement. Instead of speaking for all namespaces, you made a statement only about namespaces that are one word long. I expanded your statement because I saw potential If-Then-Else confusion.

^ Easier to copy+paste from the work page, though. It's never really been appreciated.
