Question[edit]

Did I understand correctly that the kidnappers of William Harrison had put money in his pocket? It looks like nonsense. SealMan11 (talk) 21:45, 19 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The Campden WonderCampden Wonder – My move request at Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests was rejected. But I still believe that word "The" should be removed per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (definite or indefinite article at beginning of name) because the word "the" is not capitalized in running text. For example, on thecampdenwonder.com, the phrase is "the Campden Wonder", not "The Campden Wonder" in running text. This Wikipedia article refers to a series of events, not a book or work. So the word "the" should not be capitalized and should not be included at the beginning of the article's title. Neo-Jay (talk) 03:11, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support - I focused my search within newspapers. There are a several works named "The Campden Wonder" about this topic, but the event is alone is most often referred as "the Campden Wonder" ~80% of the results. This article is the most recent I've found, uses "The" for works and "the" for the event, and so exemplifies what I think we should go with. -- Netoholic @ 04:46, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Reasons seem clear. MichaelMaggs (talk) 09:44, 1 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Beginning an article title with the definite article is generally discouraged. Rreagan007 (talk) 19:17, 2 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
