My intent is for this page to have the wording and plans for an RfC and for discussion to take place on the associated talk page. Feel free to edit below and to discuss changes on the talk page.

This draft RfC is a work in progress. Editors are requested to edit below to improve the draft proposal and discuss changes on the talk page.

The proposal would be posted at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Capital letters but other options could be discussed on the talk page.
