Naming conventions

edit

Please refer to Wikipedia:Naming conventions (capitalization), Wikipedia:Naming conventions (music) & especially Wikipedia:Naming conventions for the title of this article. For article titles we follow these conventions - regardless of what the "common" capitalization may be; variations such as irregular capitalizations are put in the article itself. The word from here is a coordinating conjunction and therefore the article title is f/lower cap. Skier Dude (talk) 05:50, 18 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Moving discussion from my talk page to more appropriate venue:


"Whataya Want from Me" is a non-standard spelling, and -- in lieu of discussing your view -- you abuse your deletion tool to enforce a non-standard spelling? Seriously? UnitAnode 05:28, 18 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
You may want to carefully read Wikipedia:Naming conventions (capitalization), Wikipedia:Naming conventions (music) & especially Wikipedia:Naming conventions before making unfounded accusations. For article titles we follow these conventions - regardless of what the "common" capitalization may be; variations such as irregular capitalizations are put in the article itself. The word from here is a coordinating conjunction and therefore the article title is f/lower cap. Skier Dude (talk) 05:47, 18 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
P.s. - "move war" (your edit summary)?? 2 editors, Aspects & I, have followed the clear conventions to move this to the correct title - so, where's the war? Skier Dude (talk) 05:55, 18 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
So, we don't do reliable sources anymore? UnitAnode 06:02, 18 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
For an example of how MOS doesn't trump RS, see anyone lived in a pretty how town. UnitAnode 06:03, 18 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
For article titles, no; for the contents of the article, yes. The article titles reflect standard/proper English, while the article contents give the variations... Your example is one that needs to be corrected... I can trump that and give hundreds: User:Skier Dude/My Sandbox/bad albums. Also, you may note that WP:RS discusses article content and the theme/issue of titles isn't mentioned. Skier Dude (talk) 06:13, 18 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
You'd better go change the titles of all cummings' poems then. As for RS, I am talking about what the sources label the song as, and that overrides MOS concerns in totality. The sources clearly capitalize the "f", just as the sources don't capitalize the title of cummings' poems. Sorry, but MOS and your opinion don't override what the sources say.

Another disruptive move

edit

Clearly, we're relying more on style guidelines than actual policy. I'm now forced to "fix" the titles of all Cummings poems to fit these MOS guidelines. If we're going to follow them over what the sources say in little articles like this one, the big ones need "fixed" as well. UnitAnode 15:09, 9 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Release on P!nk's Greatest Hits - notable?

edit

I added it, and a link to the album, into the first paragraph, because I think the fact the song is included on P!nk's greatest hits album, as a consequence of Lambert's success with the song, is notable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.172.97.94 (talk) 18:57, 6 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
