James Davis (musical group) → JAMESDAVIS – The group used to be called James Davis (two words), but it is now stylized as JAMESDAVIS (one word, all caps). Moving the page to the correct and best known title. Similar examples would be MGMT. Per WP:CAPS, "only words and phrases that are consistently capitalized in a substantial majority of independent, reliable sources are capitalized in Wikipedia." You will see that the majority of references list them as JAMESDAVIS (one word, all caps) such as Billboard, Complex, and LA Weekly. These are only three but many more are available when searching the name. I tried to move the page already but it shows it is on the "blacklist." Figured instead of asking for a technical move I would bring it up here for discussion. DoubleuWW (talk) 01:45, 29 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose – It is not our house style to copy fancy stylizations such as allcaps. Dicklyon (talk) 05:14, 30 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose as above. Stylisation only. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:41, 4 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
