Talk:Dispatches (magazine)

Latest comment: 8 years ago by Cyberbot II in topic External links modified

Magazine's name should be written with an initial capital

edit

The present article writes the publication's name as dispatches. Under Wikipedia's style rules, this should be fixed.

From Wikipedia:Manual of Style (trademarks)]:

  • "choose the style that most closely resembles standard English, regardless of the preference of the trademark owner"
  • 'Trademarks rendered without any capitals are always capitalized.."

This means that the name of the journal should be written as either Dispatches or Dispatches, since we *do* tolerate italics in the names of magazines such as Time.

Another reference could be added. One of the AfD participants found this writeup in the Columbia Journalism Review: [1]. From that article, a quote from Mort Rosenblum might be taken. "You can say that our initial press run is in the respectable thousands..." EdJohnston (talk) 04:24, 21 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
