Hi,

Please read http://qt-project.org/wiki/Spelling_Module_Names_in_Qt_Documentation.
That should contain module names for most modules and gives hints on what to use (I am aware that these guidelines are not followed everywhere)

So if you have the source and see incorrect use of module names you are free to update the documentation and add me as a reviewer.

Ok, here we go:

http://qt-project.org/wiki/Qt-Essentials-Modules
http://qt-project.org/wiki/Qt-Add-ons-Modules

There are many inconsistencies listed at the Notes section of each page (and pasted below for convenience). Please help ironing these details. Unless it's a topic for discussion you can edit the wiki directly or reply to me personally (no need to flood the list with tiny details). Thanks!

Essentials:

* What is the right way to spell these modules? Qt Widget or QtWidget? Qt WebKit or QtWebkit… ?
* Is “Qt Quick 2” the right name or “Qt Declarative” or…?
* Is it “Qt JS Backend”, “V8 JavaScript engine” or…?
* “Qt WebKit” is already listed as Add-on. Is it Essential or are we talking about the WebKit1 vs WebKit 2 difference here?
* Is “Qt Test” = “qttestlib”?
* Is “Qt System Info” = “qtsystems”?
* Is Qt 3D an Essential or Add-on?
* It seems Qt D-Bus, Qt Sensors are Add-ons?
* Are Qt Service Framework, Qt Publish and Subscribe still in Essentials? Not in Alpha release?


Add-ons:

* Should these be added? qlarl, qtconnectivity, qtdoc, qtdocgallery, qtimageformats, Phonon (or Qt Phonon?), qtpim, qtplatformsupport, qtqa, qtrepotools, qttranslations, qtwebkit-examples-and-demos
* Is it “ActiveQt”, qtactiveqt or…?
* Is it “Qt JSON DB”, “Qt JsonDB” or…?
* Is “qttools” = “Qt Script Tools” or “Qt UI Tools” or…?
* Is “Qt WebKit” in Add-ons or Essentials or…?

Plus these that were listed in the "old" page (feel free deleting them if they are not relevant anymore, or adding the comments to the cell of the appropriate component):

* Phonon will be maintained upstream by KDE.
* Open: Add Qt Quick components modules
* Open: whether Qt 5.0 will include the Qt Document Gallery add-on module.
* Open: whether Qt 5.0 will include the Qt Local connectivity add-on
* Open: whether Qt 5.0 will include the Qt Messaging add-on
