Capitalisation

I've requested a move to La création du monde, the standard French capitalization. I understand there can be reasons to capitalize the word after a title for alphabetization in a categories list, but this doesnt appear to be the case here (there is surely no excuse to capitalize Monde!)...

According to https://www.letstalkaboutfrench.com/2019/07/16/capitals-in-french-vs-english-a-capital-matter/ , the practice of capitalizing certain important religious words:

"Authors of religious texts are sometimes subject to a mystical frenzy. The result: an all-you-can-eat buffet of capitals. This phenomenon exists both in French and in English.

Generally, we capitalize:

the name of sacred entities (God, Jesus, Allah) surnames of the « divine Being » (the Almighty, the Lord) pronouns and possessive adjectives related to sacred entities (Trust in Him whose strength will uphold you/Prions le Très-Haut afin qu’Il nous accueille dans Son royaume.)"

I do not know whether this is the case for "Création" in French. It occurs with "the Creation" in English. A further complicating aspect is that the "Création" in question is according to an African Mythology.

I found a musical score from 1929 (six years after Milhaud's "Création" of the work) which spelled out the title with all capital letters...

If someone has access to the original, or to Milhaud's own writings/letters mentioning the work, this can possibly be settled. Elias (talk) 11:32, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Gatsby

isn't this piece mention by name in Fitzgerald's 'The Great Gatsby'?--98.226.9.223 (talk) 00:42, 26 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A brief Google search doesn't turn up anything but if anyone can find an excerpt I'll add it. --Mr. 123453334 (talk) 15:30, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Movement titles?

It might be good for the article to remark on the movement titles, and perhaps on why the commonly seen titles (The Chaos before Creation, etc.) do not appear at all on either Eschig score available on IMSLP. Interestingly, the Op. 81b piano quintet version seems to have entirely different ones (I. Prélude, II. Fugue, III. Romance, IV. Scherzo, V. Final). Hftf (talk) 15:46, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
