While I'm disinclined to be fanatical about consistency in naming, I do think that consistency helps to give a good impression. As it is, we often see:
 +
*Camera-Wiki

*Camera-wiki
 +
*Camera-wiki.org

and more.

I get the impression that instances with lowercase "w" are commoner than those with uppercase "W", and therefore that the former is better. Is this so?

Sticking ".org" on the end seems a bit pedantic, but perhaps it's at least necessary in any context where it's necessary to distinguish between "Camerapedia.org" (now no more than a set of redirects) and "Camerapedia" (now an area of Wikia.com).

While I'm disinclined to be fanatical about consistency in naming, I do think that consistency helps to give a good impression. As it is, we often see:

  • Camera-Wiki
  • Camera-wiki
  • Camera-wiki.org

and more.
