__NOTOC__ __NOEDITSECTION__ ==Wonky/inconsistent capitalization in the manuals== The capitalization in the manuals is so wonky and inconsistent I really want to just throw it out and stick to proper language (only capitalizing proper nouns and words that are in actual titles (and only the first word of a sentence)). <span class='plainlinks'>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Capital_letters Wikipedia considers section headings]</span> the same as sentences with only the first letter being capitalized. <span class='plainlinks'>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_(capitalization) Wikipedia also recommends]</span> not capitalizing the second or subsequent words in an article title (unless the title is a proper name). I would prefer to follow the wikipedia naming conventions and using them as our go to authority.

'archery heroes 3' shows heroes with starting archery list. 'armorer heroes 3' shows fanopinion stuff. im scared --[[User:GroundhogYear|GroundhogYear]] ([[User talk:GroundhogYear|talk]]) 10:09, 17 May 2021 (UTC) ::I could use my bot to fix everything. [[File:Hero Stormblessed small.gif|→ima|link=user:imahero]] 10:17, 17 May 2021 (UTC) :::is this a threat? --[[User:GroundhogYear|GroundhogYear]] ([[User talk:GroundhogYear|talk]]) 10:18, 17 May 2021 (UTC) ::::This is an option we have on the table. If we were not wanting to consider this because of the workload we could offload the work to a bot. That's all. [[File:Hero Stormblessed small.gif|→ima|link=user:imahero]] 10:24, 17 May 2021 (UTC) :::::but 'to fix everything' sounded quite thanos-like. and look what i got right after that message: https://snipboard.io/b01En6.jpg --[[User:GroundhogYear|GroundhogYear]] ([[User talk:GroundhogYear|talk]]) 12:57, 17 May 2021 (UTC) ::::::[[File:Hero Thanos small.gif|→ima|link=user:imahero]] 13:03, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
