– For consistency with the article titles for other particular caskets that are named in English (Becket Casket, Brescia Casket, Franks Casket, Kanishka Casket, Leyre Casket, Morgan Casket, Veroli Casket, Royal Casket, Uttoxeter Casket, Troyes Casket, Cammin Casket). The infobox of the Bimaran casket article already uses the capital letter. I'm not suggesting uppercase for Noli me tangere casketNoli me tangere Casket because that title is mostly not in English, so perhaps it should not use the English style of capping. Moving the others to sentence case could also be considered as an alternative. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 06:21, 8 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support - a proper name. Johnbod (talk) 04:52, 11 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per nom. Clearly proper names. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:04, 11 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose – Consistency will only be achieved by moving toward consistency with guidelines, not away from that as proposed here. See n-gram for Bimaran and Bajaur caskets, where it's clear that these are nowhere near the threshold crition of MOS:CAPS of consistently capitalized in sources, or of WP:NCCAPS of always capitalized even in sentences. Look at [1], where it's capped in titles, but never in sentences. I'll be happy to help fix the others. Dicklyon (talk) 22:51, 11 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Also see n-grams for others we should fix to lowercase: Brescia, Kanishka, Veroli, Troyes, Cammin. Fixing these will remove the temptation to move the wrong way in trying for consistency; some of the others need more careful checking than we can get via n-grams.

  • Oppose per Dicklyon. Casing treatment is very inconsistent in the source material.  — SMcCandlish ¢ 😼  00:08, 13 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose—a proper name? Prove it, Johnbod. Tony (talk) 04:02, 13 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
