Hey, why did you start changing it??? Look in any encyclopedia (a actuall book) and ther titles are capitaized. When only "first words" are capitalized, we are putting the title into sentence form, which it is not. At least in the US... | Hey, why did you start changing it???

Also, all titles at places like youtube, google news, ect. are capitalized with everything. | Also, all titles at places like youtube, google news, ect. are capitalized with everything. - [[User:IAMAHIPO_ocolor|ocolor]] ([[User talk:IAMAHIPO_ocolor|talk]]) | ||
:So? We're not Google. We're free to pick a system of our own. Why would it be wrong putting it into the sentence form? I like the idea, even though there are alternatives.--{{User:Prezintenden/sig}} | :So? We're not Google. We're free to pick a system of our own.

I was basing it on Wikipedia and every other Wiki that exists. YouTube's titles are typed by video creators, so that's irrelevant. Yes, most news sites and on-paper texts prefer to capitalise most words. Looks like we still need to discuss, then. Er, links to Wikipedia's pages where the standard's set: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Naming_conventions#Lowercase_second_and_subsequent_words_in_titles this] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_%28capitalization%29 this]. And I blame Prezintenden for my starting without our agreeing, because he coaxed me into it on IRC...*cough*{{User:Greenpickle/sig}} 17:16, 31 March 2008 (UTC) | |||
