Inscription problems

Latest comment: 13 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

I was intrigued by the differences in capitalization, etc., between the English and Spanish portions of the inscription. The explanation seems to be that the original inscription is all in capitals. I think it would be more correct to produce it as such in the article, even if your reference has a transcription in lower case. The way it is now looks as if Mexico should be capitalized while los estados unidos... should be in lower case. The capitalization also explains why Mexico (in Spanish) is not correctly accented. MEXICO (all caps) is usually written without the accent. Have a look at the photo here and you'll see what I mean. - Ipigott (talk) 18:15, 10 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

Benito Juarez (Alciati) → Statue of Benito Juárez (Washington, D.C.) – WP:VAMOS has been updated and now says: "For portrait sculptures of individuals in public places the forms "Statue of Fred Foo" "Equestrian statue of Fred Foo" or "Bust of Fred Foo" is recommended, unless a form such as "Fred Foo Memorial" or "Monument to Fred Foo" is the WP:COMMONNAME. If further disambiguation is needed, because there is more than one sculpture of the same person with an article, then disambiguation by location rather than the sculptor is usually better." --Another Believer _(Talk) 00:56, 6 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

Support per nom. Ham II (talk) 17:20, 6 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
Oppose The current name is actually the title of the work. The proposed title is also much more cumbersome. ~ HAL 333 18:18, 6 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
Benito Juarez (sic) isn't treated as the title in two of the article's three sources with hyperlinks. (1, 2 vs. 3) Ham II (talk) 19:58, 6 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
Support per nom. The current title is meaningless. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:17, 8 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
