Capitalization of the category?

The page says they are called "Elemental Lords" not Elemental lords. So either the page has to be fixed or the category. Rolandius Paladin (talk - contr) 05:16, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

Per WP:CAT, "Put category names in sentence case (i.e. capitalize words as you would in a sentence). For the article, I think the relevant part of WP:NAME is that the article name should appear exactly as it is in WoW, however I don't think this title appears anywhere in WoW. From Talk:Elemental Lord, Baggins has commented that it is an official title that is "almost always upper case". To answer your question, I think you should talk to Baggins. If it is an official title that is capitalized in sentences, then I believe the category should be changed. If it is sometimes written "Elemental lords" or "elemental lords", then the article should be moved back to the lower case instead of the redirect it has now. -- Mordsith - (talk|contr) 06:21, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
I think this category should be all capitalized myself because, like you mentioned per WP:CAT, in a sentence it looks like it is spelled Elemental Lords within the Elemental Lord article. Also, the article itself is spelled Elemental Lord so I don't see how it would be spelled Elemental lords as a category. Rolandius Paladin (talk - contr) 06:41, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
Sounds like you understand the policy. My only question is about Baggins's statement that it's "ALMOST always upper case". I'd check with him to find a source to confirm one way or the other. -- Mordsith - (talk|contr) 19:47, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
