=====Requests to restore capitalization which was removed before :: best discuss this lot here=====
:''This point is also being discussed at ].''
:*'''Comment''' The issue here is whether or not these titles are proper nouns. ''Prima facie'' some of them are not so they should not be upper cased. ]<sup>♦]</sup> 05:11, 23 October 2014 (UTC)
::One cannot tell by just looking at article names. It is the content that describes specific/unique events being involved, not events in general. ] (]) 03:04, 24 October 2014 (UTC)
:::How would you say we should handle an article about a specific, unique event, when that event is extensively covered in reliable sources, and all or most of the authors of those reliable sources seem to be comfortable writing about that event without referring to the event using a proper name? The authors of the reliable sources did not use a proper name in their writing. Should we give it a proper name? ] (]) 05:42, 24 October 2014 (UTC)
:*I left a note at ] to find out what he thinks. The best discussion so far of the underlying issue is at ]. My own impression is (a) DagosNavy ought to slow down, (b) it's hard to agree with Hmains that there are really so many proper names. Would these all be upper-cased in running text? ] (]) 16:52, 23 October 2014 (UTC)
:::Editor was asked to slow down & discuss on 17 October 2014 at ]. ] (]) 17:57, 23 October 2014 (UTC)
:::::True but the discussion there is not complete as user DagoNavy chose to remove comments he did not like. ] (]) 03:16, 24 October 2014 (UTC)
::::Many of the pages listed below are about riots. If you check {{cat|Riots}} and its subcats, you will see a lot of lower case, especially the word 'riot'. I didn't check for recent moves of any of these. ] (]) 18:37, 23 October 2014 (UTC)
:::::The ] itself is about types of riots so such articles and their content are correctly lower case. Proper names are those of specific/particular/unique persons, places or things (including events) so they are in the riots by country, etc., subcategories. Many of these are capitalized; some have never been capitalized (not everyone knows English rules); some are not capitalized due to user DagoNavy having started on lower casing spree in August 2014. This list I provided here is only back to Oct 1; there are many, many more that user DagoNavy did his thing on. ] (]) 02:58, 24 October 2014 (UTC)
:*Guideline ] seems more on point here than ]. ] (]) 18:01, 23 October 2014 (UTC)
*::] is also a reference and has other reference links ] (]) 03:04, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

:::"...they are proper names and are thus capitalized everywhere." I checked the refs for ] and it is not capitalized everywhere. ] (]) 03:40, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

::'''Comment''' 1st time in this forum here. My humble read of ] is we should not be giving names to things, and that the way to justify using a proper noun in WP is to find the proper noun in the preponderance of RS. Checking this would be a lot of work for all these events. I looked at RS for one, ]. This one could maybe go either way, but should probably be best treated as not a proper noun. ] (]) 03:03, 24 October 2014 (UTC)
:::The first sentences in ] are the only of relevance and they say always capitalize the words in a proper name. ] (]) 03:20, 24 October 2014 (UTC)
::::Right, always capitalize proper names. Now, how do we decide what has a proper name? Do reliable sources have a role? An event can be specific and not have a proper name. ] (]) 03:40, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

Shortcuts

The discussion process is used for potentially controversial moves. If any of the following apply to a desired move, treat it as potentially controversial:

  • There is an existing article (not just a redirect) at the target title
  • There has been any past debate about the best title for the page
  • Someone could reasonably disagree with the move.

If a desired move is uncontroversial and technical in nature (e.g. spelling and capitalization), please feel free to move the page yourself. If the page has recently been moved without discussion, you may revert the move and initiate a discussion on its talk page. In either case, if you are unable to complete/revert the move, request it below.

{{subst:RMassist|<!--old page name, without brackets-->|<!--requested name, without brackets-->|<!--reason for move-->}}
This will automatically insert a bullet and include your signature. Do not edit the article's talk page.
  • Alternatively, if the only obstacle to a technical move is another page in the way, you can request the other page be deleted. This applies for example if the other page is a redirect to the current title of the article to be moved, a redirect with no incoming links, or an unnecessary disambiguation page with a minor edit history. If it has a single history line, see WP:Move over redirect instead. To request the other page be deleted, add the following code to the top of the page that is in the way:
{{db-move|<!--page to be moved here-->|<!--reason for move-->}}
This will list the undesired page for deletion under criterion for speedy deletion G6. If the page is a redirect, place the code above the redirection. For a list of articles being considered for uncontroversial speedy deletion, see Category:Candidates for uncontroversial speedy deletion.
