Chemtrails Over the Country ClubChemtrails over the Country Club – Per MOS:TITLECAPS, prepositions of four letters or fewer should not be capitalized. Richard3120 (talk) 22:24, 26 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Nice4What: you have misread MOS:TITLECAPS... it says the exceptions are for "when a significant majority of current, reliable sources that are independent of the subject consistently capitalize, in the title of a specific work, a word that is frequently not a preposition, as in "Like" and "Past". Continue to lower-case common four-letter (or shorter) prepositions like "into" and "from"." In other words, unless we are talking about cricket, the exception to MOS:TITLECAPS is only for prepositions that can often also be nouns (which "over" is not), and that common four-letter prepositions should continue to be lower-case. MOS:TITLECAPS also states "Other styles exist with regard to prepositions, including three- or even two-letter rules in news and entertainment journalism, and many academic publishers call for capitalization of no prepositions at all. These styles are not used on Wikipedia, including for titles of pop-culture or academic works." So the fact that some publications capitalize the preposition does not mean Wikipedia should.

Ok. Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Thanks ) 20:34, 27 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry Nice4What, reading back my reply, I did sound a bit officious, and I apologize for that. In short, you are right that MOS:TITLECAPS allows for exceptions, but my understanding is that these exceptions are only for certain prepositions that can also be used as nouns, such as "Like" and "Past", where they would then use a capital letter. But as "over" is almost never used as a noun, I don't believe it would be included as one of these exceptions. That's my reading of it, anyway. If we start saying that all album titles should follow how the majority of reliable sources show them, then there's no point in having an MOS anyway.

Semi-protected edit request on 25 August 2020

[edit]

The "Lana Del Rey studio album chronology" section incorrectly states that Chemtrails Over the Country Club is to be released in 2022, instead of 2020. 2603:9000:D302:7800:BDCC:1541:935F:A30 (talk) 14:31, 25 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Eighth studio album

[edit]

After the sixth studio album NFR, COCC comes in as the seventh - not the eighth studio album. --80.129.175.26 (talk) 00:04, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I would like to submit a request to put back "Grenadine Quarantine" under the Possible Tracks section. There are two sources for this song, the same one for "If This is the End...I Want a Boyfriend" from Dazed, as well as this one: https://www.nylon.com/lana-del-rey-quarantine-poetry.

 Not done for now: Please see WP:CRYSTAL. The cited articles are speculating about possible tracks. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 18:41, 12 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
