Tree puzzleTREE-PUZZLE – TREE-PUZZLE is the actual name of the software; I cannot do it myself, because TREE-PUZZLE appears to be blacklisted. Rentier (talk) 21:37, 16 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 22:30, 16 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
@In ictu oculi: I was under impression that TREE-PUZZLE was a proper name and thus allowed by the guidelines. Was I wrong? Tree Puzzle is an algorithm used by the TREE-PUZZLE software package - but they are not the same. Rentier (talk) 23:32, 16 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
Hi, if that's the case the distinction needs to be sourced and in the article. But even if it was proper name our MOS rules would rule it out. We only use caps for acronyms. In ictu oculi (talk) 23:37, 16 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
Ah, I see. How about Tree-puzzle, then? It is used in the literature, though not as commonly as the fully capitalized form. Tree puzzle without hyphen doesn't really work unless we want Wikipedia to call it a name not used anywhere else. Rentier (talk) 23:45, 16 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Move to tree-puzzle or Tree-Puzzle

Thanks for the input - I now see that the full-cap title was inappropriate for Wikipedia. I believe a move to tree-puzzle or Tree-Puzzle would be uncontroversial - or should I start another request? Rentier (talk) 10:34, 17 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

@Rentier: I think Tree-Puzzle is sufficient for now. ToThAc (talk) 20:14, 17 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
