FLOCert → FLOCERT – I am writing to you to request a change on our company’s wiki page. The correct writing is: FLOCERT. To help with verifying that this info is indeed correct, find our website here[1] where you’ll see the correct writing: FLOCERT all capitalised. 80.146.103.144 (talk) 14:23, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
- Support per usage in Reuters [2][3]. A couple of minor newspapers have recently used the current capitalization, likely influenced by Wikipedia, but it's not sufficiently widespread. It looks like a little bit of a hypercorrection to have the non-initialism part lowercase even when preceded by uppercase letters. – Thjarkur (talk) 14:49, 1 September 2020 (UTC)
