[Wikia-l] Using "C++" in a page or category title

[John Beckett]

At the Vim Tips wiki (Vim is a programmer's text editor), we have many pages
with strange symbols, and an issue arises with the C++ programming language.

On Wikipedia, they happily have:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C++
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:C%2B%2B

However, on vim.wikia.com, we have found that using "C++" in the title of a
page gives extreme trouble. I tried it once to confirm reports from others,
and found it impossible to make a link to the page.

This is not a big deal, and if that's the way it is, we'll live with it. But
I'm aware that Wikia software is updated and I'm wondering about the near
future.

Is it best to forget about using "C++" in the title of a page?

One reason I'm wondering is that we use "Cpp" in page titles instead of
"C++", but we have a category called "C plus plus". I'm thinking of changing
the category to Cpp, so I thought I should first check whether C++ might be
suitable instead.
