(non-admin closure) HandClap → Handclap (song) – If you really think about it, "HandClap" is the way the song is stylized. Literally the word "handclap" does exist, therefore it should be titled as suck. JE98 (talk) 02:04, 4 November 2017 (UTC)
- I don't have strong feelings about it one way or another, but most sources I have seen use "HandClap". Sometimes examples of camel case stay, like on This Summer's Gonna Hurt like a MotherFucker (which I never cared for the stylisation of either, just noting it). I would say what matters most is how it's referred to by the majority of sources. Ss112 02:23, 4 November 2017 (UTC)
- Support just a stylism. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:04, 4 November 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose Whether its a stylism but or an intentional capitalization, it should be preserved in the article name. WP looks silly when we our article names don't match other search results, and it confuses readers. Current name doesn't conflict with anything else and per WP:SMALLDIFFS it qualifies to stay. -- Netoholic @ 11:20, 4 November 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose. All capitalisation is stylism. This is slightly unconventional, but nonetheless, it's intentional. We shouldn't try to "correct" the title of someone's work. PepperBeast (talk) 02:18, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
- Closing. No good reason to change this. Calling the spelling of this somg a "styleism" amounts to no more than WP:IDON'TLIKEIT.
