Talk:Now That's What I Call Drag Music, Vol. 1

Title
I'm not exactly sure what to do about this album's title. Some sources and platform say "Now That's What I Call Drag Music, Vol .1" and others say "Now That's What I Call Drag Music, Vol. 1". I can't tell if ".1" is intentional or not. I've gone with "Vol. 1" for now, since this is more intuitive, but discussion is welcome. --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:01, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Have either of you encountered something like this before? This album is known by 2 different names ("Now That's What I Call Drag Music" and "Songs in the Key of Nope"), and sometimes "Now That's..." is displayed with "Vol .1" and other times "Vol. 1". The Apple Store and Spotify use "Vol .1", Tidal uses "Songs in the Key...", and sources generally use "Now That's..." but split re: Vol .1 vs Vol. 1. Any thoughts here would be helpful, before I consider a possible GA nom, but I understand if you're not interested. Thanks! --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 14:08, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
 * , Certainly, albums have had multiple titles, especially over fairly trivial or typographic issues. I'd say that it's best to stick with "Vol. 1" until we have some compelling reason to think that "Vol .1" is correct as some kind of wordplay, etc. Seems like a database error to me. As for the substantially different names, if you really can't figure out which is more common, just stick with what it's called now. That's my take. ―Justin ( koavf ) ❤T☮C☺M☯ 15:14, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
 * I think "Vol .1" is just lazy formatting on the part of Apple Music and Spotify - there's no reason at all to write it this way, and if it was intentional by the artist and supposed to be humorous, then it doesn't work because most people wouldn't spot the "joke" and it would have to be explained somewhere. So I just think it's bad spelling by the streaming sites. This is becoming very common with titles that are initials or abbreviations, and it's a result of poor journalism and sub-editing. I had an argument to get R.Y.C. (album) changed, because the spellings of that title were all over the place in supposedly reliable sources, sometimes even changing from one spelling to another during the review or article. In view of so many variations, I argued that the proper grammatical spelling with a period/full stop after every letter was the best title. But then you also have the song T.D, which is written like that everywhere, including the album cover... but really, it's wrong, and it looks terrible. But I can't argue to change it, because all reliable sources write it like that. Richard3120 (talk) 15:17, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you, both. Very helpful! --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 19:50, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
 * I agree with Justin and Richard too, on the same grounds. Sergecross73   msg me  17:36, 19 June 2020 (UTC)
