For example, the first split of Glossary of underwater basketweaving terms could be into Glossary of underwater basketweaving terms: A–M and Glossary of underwater basketweaving terms: N–Z, but very long glossaries may need even more parts, and some glossaries will have some one letters' sections much longer than others. If there are terms ...
Uses of the class name as a noun are not hyphenated, while adjectival references are hyphenated. Article names that follow the form just described are adjectival because the compound phrase made up of <class name> and "class" modifies the noun <ship type>. As such, article titles should be hyphenated:

Words such as comet and galaxy should be capitalized when they form part of a proper name, but not when they are used as a generic term ( Halley's Comet is the most famous of the comets ; The Andromeda Galaxy is a ...
This is not done in Wikipedia. In math formulas a hyphen-minus codes for a minus sign, but in text − produces the minus sign (see below). En dash ("–", MOS:ENDASH) are slightly longer than hyphens. They are used: in date ranges, such as 1849–1863, to join two names in a phrase, such as the Michelson–Morley experiment,
The hyphen ‐ is a punctuation mark used to join words and to separate syllables of a single word. The use of hyphens is called hyphenation. [1]The hyphen is sometimes confused with dashes (en dash –, em dash — and others), which are wider, or with the minus sign −, which is also wider and usually drawn a little higher to match the crossbar in the plus sign +.
In the tables, the hyphen has two different meanings. A hyphen after the letter indicates that it must be at the beginning of a syllable, e.g., j - in jumper and ajar. A hyphen before the letter indicates that it cannot be at the beginning of a word, e.g., - ck in sick and ticket.
[optional in place of hyphen] separator for clitics, e.g., West Greenlandic palasi=lu niuirtur=lu (priest=and shopkeeper=and) "both the priest and the shopkeeper" [2] [20]. when a morph is rendered by more than one gloss, the glosses are separated by periods, e.g., French aux chevaux (to. ART.PL horse. PL) "to the horses"
Where numerator and denominator can each be expressed in one word, a fraction is usually spelled out (e.g. a two-thirds majority; moved one-quarter mile); use figures if a fraction appears with a symbol (e.g. 1 ⁄ 4 mi (markup: {{frac|1|4}} mi), not a quarter of a mi or one-quarter mi).
