Talk:UEFA–CONMEBOL memorandum of understanding

Requested move 29 June 2022

Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion. 

The result of the move request was: Moved to UEFA–CONMEBOL memorandum of understanding. Found to be a descriptive title and not a proper name, so "memorandum of understanding" was agreed to be lower-cased. As this memorandum was made between two entities, the hyphen is to be replaced with an en-dash as well. (closed by non-admin page mover) — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi!

UEFA-CONMEBOL Memorandum of understanding → UEFA–CONMEBOL Memorandum of Understanding – Correct punctuation, the move is blacklisted for average users due to "Disallows moves with more than nine consecutive capital letters" Saksapoiss (talk) 22:48, 29 June 2022 (UTC) — Relisting. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi!

 * Shouldn't "Memorandum" and "Understanding" be lowercase? —&#8288;&#8202;&#8288;BarrelProof (talk) 05:36, 1 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Yes, they could be, but it's debatable and needs a consensus, as the sources (see the references section) indicate that UEFA themselves use "Memorandum of Understanding" as a name for the actual agreement. -- Saksapoiss (talk) 16:50, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
 * But with "UEFA-CONMEBOL" in front of it, I think it should use lowercase, since that seems like a description of the document rather than its title. The cited sources are just using "Memorandum of Understanding", not "UEFA-CONMEBOL Memorandum of Understanding". Certainly, one shouldn't use a capital letter if the other one doesn't. —&#8288;&#8202;&#8288;BarrelProof (talk) 19:49, 2 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Lowercase memorandum of understanding, definitely; it's a common descriptive term, not conceivably a proper name just because some people cap it for emphasis. This title does not appear as such in sources as far as I can tell; nor does even UEFA-CONMEBOL appear.  It is an MoU between two orgs, and so that hyphen needs to be changed to an en-dash. UEFA–CONMEBOL memorandum of understanding is my counter-proposal. Dicklyon (talk) 20:09, 5 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Support UEFA–CONMEBOL memorandum of understanding per above discussion. —&#8288;&#8202;&#8288;BarrelProof (talk) 21:45, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Support: lower case, unless there's a document with "UEFA-CONMEBOL Memorandum of Understanding" at the top, in which case, that would be the proper noun. I can't imagine any case for capitalizing the "M" without capitalizing the "u" as it is now. SchreiberBike &#124; ⌨ 01:09, 10 July 2022 (UTC)

 * Support UEFA–CONMEBOL memorandum of understanding per above. There is no reason to conclude memorandum of understanding is other than a descriptive term and no evidence that we should cap IAW WP:NCCAPS and MOS:CAPS.  If it is capped by the bodies involved, these are not independent sources and capitalisation for emphasis or significance would fall to MOS:SIGNIFCAPS - ie we don't do that.
