You could solve both problems in one step: instead of having titles of 
the form "Foo Bar « WordPress Codex", use "WordPress Help: Foo bar".

For example:
*   WordPress Help: Upgrading
*   WordPress Help: Design and layout
*   WordPress Help: First steps
*   WordPress Help: Using themes
*   WordPress Help: Tips for high-traffic sites

Then you need never add the word "WordPress" yourself, and nor will you 
need to keep explaining the word "codex".
