User:Girth Summit/MILTERMS case study

Method: enter search term and review. Discount any that are in the title of the work, chapter titles, any that refer to works about the engagement (books, poems, plays, paintings, films...), any that don't fit the model of 'the Siege of X' or 'the siege of X' (so all caps, neither capped, etc are discounted). Look at first 50 hits (or all hits if <50) and make tally. If disparity is not > 10:1 in either direction, continue to look at the next 50 (or all hits if <100). If the numbers are very low, I click on a few links that don't present the phrase on the list to see if I can gather how they are writing it. This is not done rigorously.

Sieges
Conclusion: most sieges seem to be lower case for the word siege.
