Categories of whip

edit

I've removed the section on line whips since per http://www.parl.gc.ca/marleaumontpetit/DocumentViewer.aspx?DocId=1001&Sec=Ch12&Seq=12&Language=E#fn281, Canada does not use the one-/two-/three-line whip system.

Moving the article from the title "Party Whip" to "Party whip"

edit

Looking at the main Party whip article, I noticed that the capitalisation for the Australian and Canadian articles differed. The capitalization is even inconsistent within this article, if I recall correctly at the moment.

So, I'm moving the article based on the style guide of the major Canadian newspaper considered by some (according to its Wikipedia article) to be Canada's newspaper of record, The Globe and Mail.[1]

In case I misunderstood the style guide on this point, I confirmed the usage by finding an article that had the usage in the headline. [I had a problem dictating this on my mobile phone, so I'll save this as is and then put the reference in in a little bit, and then finish the page move. —Geekdiva (talk) 20:26, 8 July 2017 (UTC)]Reply
