Walk All over Me → Walk All Over Me – Per MOS:TITLECAPS. Charles Essie (talk) 05:15, 6 February 2020 (UTC)
- Somehow, "all over" is both an adverb and a preposition per Merriam-Webster. If the title treats the phrase as an adverb, then "Walk All Over Me" (as if "Walk Me All Over"). If preposition, then
"Walk all over Me" (notice that I de-capitalized "all over").Even Google results and sources do not describe whether "all over" is to them either an adverb or a preposition, regardless of how they capitalize the title. I can't be sure whether to trust the sources' way of capitalizing the title. My best bet ismove to "Walk all over Me" because that's probably how "all over" is defined in this title.George Ho (talk) 21:34, 6 February 2020 (UTC)
