Acronym

When the name of a topic is an acronym (CMYK color model, GIMP), it's probably best to introduce it that way, rather than put the expansion first. We realize this is the opposite of what the MOS says is usual good practive in an article, but we're talking about the name by which a topic is most well known, so it's really not the same thing as introducing an acronym as a shortcut. And don't do the first-letter-bold hack; that's definitely not in accord with the MOS. Dicklyon (talk) 14:45, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

reasoning here is sound, as 'first-letter-bold hack' it was inherited I am agreed it looks ugly. --Gnepets (talk) 03:48, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
