Should this article be renamed?
As Riawo pointed out on the Discord server, the beginning of this article on Video refers to him as "videogamesm12", which differs from the capitalization used in this article's name. However, I am not sure if this article should be renamed to "videogamesm12" to match the capitalization used in the article or the article should be changed to use the same capitalization as the article's name.
I have never once seen Video referred to before as "VideoGameSm12" but I do understand this casing is used in the names of other articles, and as such is why I am mentioning it in this talk page instead of just modifying the article. Allink (talk) 15:53, 22 August 2023 (UTC)

- MediaWiki automatically capitalizes the name of every article, and it looks really weird as Community:Videogamesm12. There was a period of time where we had a module that allowed us to change the name of the article to lowercase, but for some reason it's not there anymore. Video (talk) 15:54, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
- Alright, I see. I'll edit the contents of the article to reflect the article's name. Allink (talk) 15:56, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
- @Video and Allink: The {{DISPLAYTITLE}} magic word can be used to change how the article title appears in the page itself. Ex: putting {{DISPLAYTITLE:videogamesm12}} at the top of the article. It doesn't affect the actual name of the article, but it's a good compromise. Deauthorized (talk) 00:57, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
- It broke the User groups page so I had to remove it Telesphoreo (talk) 00:42, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

- @Video and Allink: The $wgCapitalLinkOverrides configuration option allows MediaWiki to use all lowercase letters in article titles, so I've asked tele to enable it for the community namespace. Deauthorized (talk) 10:05, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
