Category:Ancient Peoples[edit]

This should be renamed to / merged into Category:Ancient peoples, in order to drop the pointless uppercase "p" in "peoples". --Joy [shallot]

  • As the lower case policy is established it seems we have to grin and bare it, but please don't call capitalisation "pointless". It is consistent with normal usage which most people learnt in school. The lower case policy would appear to be a manifestation of Wikipedia's geeky origins, but as it develops an ever higher proportion of readers are likely to be people who will find the lower case policy jarring, or just plain wrong. I think I'll be stubborn now and vote to oppose change here. Philip 03:42, 6 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • This isn't the place to suggest a change of policy. Since there are two categories by the same name and only one of them should be kept, Category:Ancient Peoples should be merged into Category:Ancient peoples. —Mike 05:20, Feb 6, 2005 (UTC)
  • 'Merge with Ancient peoples. People is not a proper noun here, and so should not be capitalized. What are you thinking using european spelling for capitalized and American style for title punctuation anyway? 8-D --ssd 00:20, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
