Can I make in Mediawiki links lowercase and use hyphen instead of underscore as word separator? Sort of what Wordpress or another wiki CMS does.

Q:
MediaWiki: Can I make all links lowercase and use hyphen instead of underscore as word separator?
A:
It looks like you can adjust the link case setting with this configuration value. I wasn't able to find anything regarding the word separator. Good luck.

This would only sort of solve his problem, because I think it only makes it so a lowercase letter is allowed as the first character, not forced.

A:
It is possible to make MediaWiki use dashes instead of underscores to indicate whitespace. Wikihow does it. But it requires a number of edits to the source code, which is usually not advised. Also, no guarantee to be without bugs.

A:
To make a page name lowercase, use: Template:Lowercase. Add {{Lowercase}} to any page to change how it is displayed.
Links can be used lowercase anyway - the very first letter of a link can be upper or lower case - it will always link to the correct page.
