Talk:Title (disambiguation)

Think twice

Think Twice Before You Take This Class —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.187.161.46 (talk • contribs) —Preceding undated comment added 00:11, 24 August 2006, but its date added by the undersigned Jerzy at the time of J's sig; the above section heading was retrofitting by yet another of our colleagues.

The preceding talk contrib
...(whose content i've made less distracting) was undated and bot-signed, and appears to be about offering a course whose title is "Think Twice Before You Take This Class", or abt giving that nickname to a course (that is not specified here). Or it
... may be just utter nonsense. YMMV, and if so, please add some wisdom to this talk section by sharing your insight between the "Jerzy" sig/time-stamp and the start of the next section.

Titles of works

Titles of works such as films, books, etc should have it's own wiki page, discussing the formatting rules for titles as they pertain to different kinds of works.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.241.90.91 (talk) 06:20, 24 August 2006
For example, certain words like for, the, and, on, in, etc. are not to be capitalized within a title unless they are the first word in the title.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.241.90.91 (talk) 06:23:23, 24 August 2006
Additionally, in some cases a title must be in italics, underlined, or in quotes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.241.90.91 (talk) 06:23:59, 24 August 2006

For Wikipedia specifics, please refer to Wikipedia:Manual of Style (titles) Ewlyahoocom 04:54, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. There should be a page about titles of works of art or media. This meaning is simply not covered. T3kcit (talk) 15:03, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I also agree, titles of works/media needs it's own page. --86.169.102.32 (talk) 15:46, 8 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Legislation

Also, in the context of legislation, the words title, long title and short title have very specific meanings.— Preceding unsigned comment added by James500 (talk • contribs) 03:14, 5 February 2009

The term "title" in the sense of a part of a U.S. statute (e.g., "Title IX of the xx Act of 1978") needs to be included/defined. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:9000:AC08:A600:75B6:BC77:CD28:45DC (talk) 22:40, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sport

A champion sportsperson is often spoken of as 'defending his or her title', that is, their claim to the status, and hence the title of Champion.Bluedawe 01:29, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

" keep to top "

I removed  from the first titled section, since there is no discussion here of why keeping in that section as the first titled one, or its contents ahead of other content, furthers our work. Such a directive to editors, with a comment-embedded URL to as section on this talk page, embodying a discussion that starts with theories of "why?", reaches a consensus that it's desirable to do so, and works up a less ambiguous account of what actions it seeks, or wishes to avoid, might in fact make the directive desirable.
(If this seems to someone more peremptory than was putting the bald, uh, request where i found it, such a person would be a good candidate for the tasks of

finding the edit history entry for the edit that placed it there,
exhibiting the diff-page's URL here, and
presumably soliciting information from the editor in question.)
