Associativity-based routing → Associativity-Based Routing – Specific patented protocol and so is a proper noun ~Kvng (talk) 13:29, 7 September 2018 (UTC) --Relisting. Dreamy Jazz 🎷 talk to me &#124; my contributions 22:28, 17 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Oppose. General English grammar rules are that the second word in a hyphenated word is not capitalized unless it is a proper noun on its own (e.g. "Anglo-Saxon"), which "based" is not. If this is in fact a proper noun, then it should be "Associativity-based Routing". Rreagan007 (talk) 17:19, 7 September 2018 (UTC)
 * I'm OK with Associativity-based Routing if that's what grammar dictates. It doesn't sound like you're contesting proper noun status of the subject itself which is what I'm trying to straighten out here. ~Kvng (talk) 16:03, 8 September 2018 (UTC)


 * Oppose. As both the suggested uppercase and current lowercase are used in parallel and since the otherwise grammatically correct "Associativity-based Routing" is not commonly used, I prefer the current lower case. See some examples for lower case usage below. I suspect that scientific and other professionals that use "Associativity-Based Routing" (at times without hyphen) like the fact that the caps correspond with the abbreviation. We should prefer the solution that is both commonly used and grammatically correct. gidonb (talk) 06:41, 26 September 2018 (UTC)

 * In an ad-hoc mobile network where mobile hosts (MHs) are acting as routers and where routes are made inconsistent by MHs' movement, we employ an associativity-based routing scheme where a route is selected based on nodes having associativity states that imply periods of stability.

The content of this article is problematic
This issue was brought up in the AFD discussion linked above. I think we've noticed that this article is pretty promotional and isn't quite up to Wikipedia's standards at the moment. It doesn't help that this is a topic that requires a lot of technical knowledge. It would be helpful if editors who are knowledgeable about the topic area could rewrite this article to be more encyclopedic. – FenixFeather (talk) (Contribs) 23:18, 21 September 2018 (UTC)
