--- Comment #6 from Purodha Blissenbach <[email protected]> --- (In reply to comment #2) > I don't understand, are you sggesting to drop the default > case-insensitiveness for the first letter in MediaWiki > namespace? I suggest consistent display and use. Inside programs, in transclusions, and in other technical references to them, messages in the MediaWiki namespace are spelt lowercase first. Uppercasing them for some displays is inconsistent and unfriendly towards us who cannot copy-paste the uppercased version to other places where uppercasing would be wrong. Since these messages are rarely used or even looked at by non-techies, there is no need for excessive "beautification" of displays. If a wiki uses the equivalence of upper/lowercase first letters in titles, like Wikipedia does, lowercase display and uppercase use do not conflict, i.e. behaviour of the wiki would not change, even if one copied-pasted the lowercase version of a message title inside the wiki, where he previously copied-pasted an uppercase version. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
