: I'm all for this. That Oracle have traditionally blurred the lines between their product names and their generic definitions should not affect us: we should try to define articles as best we can. We don't need a generic article on "Oracle databases", we need one on the Oracle RDBMS product. I'd definitely go with being as specific as we can.

:: Oops... well I moved it, as you can see, but I realize, especially because of what they call it on [www.oracle.com], that the official name is '''Oracle Database''', with a capital '''D'''. (I swear I've hit the nail squarely this time!) And now I can't move it to that because the redirect page has a history. Requesting assistance! In the mean time, we/I can still clean up the article.
:: The amusing part is that a great majority of other articles link to [[Oracle RDBMS]] rather than the other two. I have concluded that the official name is simply '''Oracle Database''', while it can also be referred to as the "Oracle RDBMS" or "Oracle database system" or some variation, as long as you use the word '''[[the]]''', referring to the system in this way as a noun, and not a name. --[[User:DJPhazer|DJ Phazer]] 19:51, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
