Talk:ProVida

Advertisement
I'm not someone who is very familiar with how to edit and operate on Wikipedia, but some of the language in this article makes it seem like it is written as an ad. If possible, could this be cleared up or clarified? 72.161.201.123 (talk) 06:24, 22 March 2011 (UTC)Spencer

Requested move

 * The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section. 

The result of the proposal was renamed to ProVida (no capital D). Neither the current name nor the proposed name seem to be how sources refer to it, therefore neither is appropriate. The trademark capitalization distinguishes it from a different proper name associated with our article Provida. ~Amatulić (talk) 20:43, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

ProViDa → Provida – I believe we shouldn't use sensational spelling but I'm not sure if we have a policy on that. Note that the article was written as an advertisement until today. --Schuhpuppe (talk) 15:57, 31 July 2012 (UTC)

 * Support the WP:MOSTM supports this.--70.49.81.140 (talk) 05:35, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Actually the MOS supports either way, Under General rules (last bullet): "Trademarks in CamelCase are a judgment call. CamelCase may be used where it reflects general usage and makes the trademark more readable. OxyContin or Oxycontin—editor's choice". --Education does not equal common sense. 我不在乎  06:13, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Actually it does not. Cammelcase is a case when people combine separate words together and capitalize the first lestter of each word. For this to be cammelcase Vi and Da would need to be words.--70.49.81.140 (talk) 00:47, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
 * IKEA, CNET and NARAL are by few definitions acronyms or camelcase, yet this is the only way they are spelled. Marcus   Qwertyus   01:35, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
 * CamelCase is any word that is written with inner capital letters, the most commonly found camel case words are like you stated, but not all.--Education does not equal common sense. 我不在乎  02:09, 3 August 2012 (UTC)


 * Support ProVida - Provida is already taken and the CamelCase form is more common anyway. . Marcus   Qwertyus   11:07, 2 August 2012 (UTC)
