THEY. → They (duo) – The music duo's name is a stylization. This page should be moved to They (duo) or They (R&B duo). Similar to Hat., Skate., or Janet.. 2600:6C40:5400:766:9CFE:FC96:826:4606 (talk) 10:53, 8 July 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. ASUKITE  05:06, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Support not an acronym. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:55, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Oppose per WP:TITLETM and WP:NATDIS. The independent RS usually capitalize the name, and most also keep the period as well. The proposed formatting (They, with only the capital T and no period) is generally nonexistent in the sources. Additionally, "THEY." does well as a natural disambiguation, as no other "They" is generally spelled with all caps and a period. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi! (投稿) 23:16, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
 * FYI, Rolling Stone is a relatively high quality source and it uses exactly what is proposed (only capital T, no dot) – "Los Angeles duo They sing on the DJ collaboration ...". —&#8288;&#8202;&#8288;BarrelProof (talk) 06:00, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

 * Support: Pure stylism, not followed by Rolling Stone here, all-caps not followed by XXL here and here, and decorative full stops, and especially terminating full stops, are especially frowned upon in Wikipedia article titles, as in the "skate." example of MOS:TM and the prior RM discussions for Bakuman, Damn (Kendrick Lamar album), Fun (band), Gangsta (manga), Hat (Mike Keneally album), Janet (album), Kobato, Lovestrong, Mad Love (JoJo album), Melody (Japanese singer), Moon (visual novel), Ms. Vampire Who Lives in My Neighborhood, Okay (album), Respect (magazine), Shakira (album), The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard, Withering to Death, and Your Name. —&#8288;&#8202;&#8288;BarrelProof (talk) 17:31, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Support. Trivial stylization, which MOS:ALLCAPS explicitly advises against capitalizing. Plus it's a pain to read. Popcornfud (talk) 17:52, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Support - It requires an overwhelming majority of sources to use this kind of jarring stylization. Primergrey (talk) 18:28, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Support per several comments on our stylization/title policy/guidelines above. Dicklyon (talk) 05:23, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Support per MOS:TM, MOS:CAPS, MOS:TITLES, WP:NCCAPS. This is a trivial "MARKETING ALL-CAPS" over-stylization, and does not represent an acronym. This is essentially the exact same cases as GANGSTA. → Gangsta (manga) and several other cases of over-capitalization and/or extraneous punctuation marks.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  21:20, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
