Line 32 ⟶ 38:

Even the GNU uses lower case ([www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/]): "The GNU coding standards, last updated ..."

Per [[WP:CAPS]] ("Wikipedia avoids unnecessary capitalization") and [[WP:TITLE]], this is a generic, common term, not a propriety or commercial term, so the article title should be downcased. Lowercase will match the formatting of related article titles. [[User:Tony1|<span class="texhtml" style="text-shadow:#BBBBBB 0.1em 0.1em 0.1em; class=texhtml">[[User:Tony1|<fontspan colorstyle="color:darkgreen;">'''Tony'''</font span>]] [[User talk:Tony1|<fontspan colorstyle="color:darkgreen;">(talk)</font span>]]</span>]] 03:45, 16 November 2011 (UTC)

*'''Support''' per the official web page [http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/ GNU coding standards] and generally no reason to capitalize. [[User:Dicklyon|Dicklyon]] ([[User talk:Dicklyon|talk]]) 05:09, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
