"The nouveau roman style also left its mark on screen as writers..."[edit]

Should this read:

"The nouveau roman style also left its mark on the screen as writers..?

I leave it up to someone involved with the creation of this page to decide.

  • Comment: The 'R' would not normally be capitalized in French. Do we have evidence of capitalization from usage in English? EdJohnston (talk) 01:38, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose should not be capitalized. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:55, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose unless "Nouveau Roman" is capitalized in English sources. In French sources I could find, it seems to not be capitalized - for instance in the various editions of the book Pour un nouveau roman. There could be an argument that the page should be moved to New Roman, which seems to be the term in some English sources, but unless there are en sources using the fr words with en capitalization (which sounds unlikely) the hybrid should not be used. (Also, the various miscapitalizations in the article should be corrected as well.) TigraanClick here to contact me 16:56, 17 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
