As most of you know, we use capital letters for names of every single article on this wiki, including the ones which aren't even proper nouns, like Chipped Cup, Swan House, Sorcerer's Hat, Bridge Trolls, Arendelle Castle, Apprentice's Wand, Locator Spells, Edwin's House, Magic Globe, Idyllic Garden, Jefferson's Mansion etc. As far as I know, it's been like this from the beginning, but I think we need to re-evaluate this.

Personally, I think we should only use capital letters for names which actually warrant them. Proper nouns should always be capitalized, of course (that includes episode names), as should names which are capitalized by the show itself (like Tiana's Palace) or press releases (which capitalize the names of every credited character, even the ones who have no proper noun in their names, such as Blind Witch or Armed Escort) other material (for example, the Mome Rath and other creatures from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland are capitalized in Lewis Carroll's novel, so I've used capital letters when they're mentioned in our articles). Names which have a proper noun feel/ring to them, such as the Curse of the Poisoned Heart and the Forbidden Mountain, should also be capitalized, in my opinion.

But otherwise, I think capital letters look unnecessary, like we're trying to create some importance which does not even exist. It also causes a problem during editing, because when we wish to write grammatically correct paragraphs within the articles themselves, we have to make a redirect for article names which aren't proper nouns, but which are capitalized for the article names (for example, we have to write magic globe, Arendelle castle, etc.

This has been bugging me for ages, so in order to settle this once and for all, I'm putting it to a vote. Do you think we should stop capitalizing every article name and only do that with the ones that actually warrant it according to orthography and source material, or do you think we should continue with the old way. Feel free to speak out; you don't have to agree with me just because I don't like it :-) The most important thing is that we settle this; the official result will be added to the rules.
