 | This section concerns a draft proposal which is a work in progress. Editors are requested to comment on pros and cons on the basic idea and on how the draft proposal can be improved, rather than on whether it is a good idea to adopt the draft in its current form. Once this notice is removed, discussion can move more clearly on to the issue of whether an actual proposal should be adopted, with or without amendments. |
Capitalization of universe - request for comment
[edit]Should the sentence at MOS:CELESTIALBODIES be changed
1. by adding "universe" so that the text reads:
- The words universe, sun, earth, moon and solar system are capitalized (as proper names) when used in an astronomical context to refer to a specific celestial body ...
or
2. by adding "but not universe" and removing "as proper names" as below:
- The words sun, earth, moon and solar system are capitalized (
as proper namesbut not universe) when used in an astronomical context to refer to a specific celestial body ...
(This template {{rfc|sci|style}} cannot be added to a draft, but it would look roughly like the table below)
