What is a Camel Case Word?

A Camel Case word is created by taking two or more words and writing them together without a space and by capitalizing the first letter of all words in the phrase.
Example:  CamelCase 

Camel Case words are frequently used in programming and a necessary part of the Civic Scope website.  The wiki engine that runs Civic Scope uses Camel Case words to identify pages that are stored within the site.  By using Camel Case words for page names the site knows a user is refering to a page within the database or a page that they would like to create in the database and ultimately makes for a much more efficient user experience.  If we did not use Camel Case words to identify pages, we would have to use some other way to designate that a word in our text is not just a word but a page name.
