Talk:Collectio canonum Hibernensis

inconsistent capitalization
I'm unclear about what rules of capitalization were applied to this article title. Latin can be capitalized by English rules, in which case all three words would be capitalized, or by rules that I would characterize as "French" but which seem to be more common in English too these days in academic sources (first word and proper nouns only are capitalized in titles), or maybe even by German rules, in which case Canonum would be capitalized and not hibernensis, which is an adjective. In English, it's a proper adjective, and thus capitalized; but in that case, Canonum would be too. The rationale for the capitalization of the Anglicized title escapes me too: "Irish Collection of Canon law." Perhaps this is only a typo, and Law was meant.

 * My feeling is that the usage found in English academic sources should prevail, thus Collectio canonum Hibernensis, (NOT Collectio Canonum Hibernensis or Collectio canonum hibernensis). Re the English translation of the title, there does seem to be some confusion about whether the term 'canon law' is to be capitalized or not. I believe the trend now is NOT to capitalize, and this seems to be the orthography sanctioned by the Oxford English Dictionary. However, in English, major words in the titles of works are customarily capitalized. I therefore suggest the following spellings: Collectio canonum Hibernensis and The Irish Collection of Canon Law.Eltheodigraeardgesece (talk) 12:51, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
