**You may have missed some of the recent discussions, which have been somewhat numerous but do have a consensus outcome that is reflected in the guideline at [[MOS:JOBTITLES]]. Yes, we would capitalise [[Lord Mayor of London]], [[Earl of Essex]], and [[King of England]], but this is different because this is about the ''plural'' – the ''entire set'' of people who have held a title. I can provide explicit pointers to many of those recent discussions, but I hope that the most directly relevant one will suffice – please see the recent RM at '''[[Talk:List of lord mayors of London]]''' (and note that it is using lowercase). The discussion in that RM also contains references to many similar RMs with consistent outcomes. A formal title is capitalised as a [[proper noun]] when in the ''singular'' form as a formal title held by only one person (as in the article title [[Lord Mayor of London]]). In the plural, it is describing a group of people, not a single person, so it is not a proper noun in that form and should not be capitalised. The singular/plural distinction is explicitly discussed in [[MOS:JOBTITLES]]. Surely the category [[:Category:Lord Mayors of London]] should be consistent with the corresponding list [[List of lord mayors of London]]. —[[User:BarrelProof|BarrelProof]] ([[User talk:BarrelProof|talk]]) 18:20, 25 July 2019 (UTC)

:* It is not a proper name. Prince-bishop is (the English translation of) the German term "Fürstbischof" which however was not officially used outside of the Holy Roman Empire or the Baltics. The (English translation of the) proper name in case of Montenegro was [[Metropolitanate of Montenegro and the Littoral]].

::::*Something doesn't have to be formally named to be a proper name! Prince-Bishopric of Montenegro is ''used'' as a proper name, as it is used as the name of the state entity which was Montenegro at the time. Whether it was ''officially'' used or not is irrelevant. United States is not the official name of the United States of America; does that mean it shouldn't be capitalised? It is a convention in English to treat such names as proper names and capitalise them. -- [[User:Necrothesp|Necrothesp]] ([[User talk:Necrothesp|talk]]) 14:07, 30 July 2019 (UTC)

:::::::Of course, but why should it have? United states is a generic title without the America bit added. Yet we do retain the capitalisation.
