Capitalizing "The" in the Beatles? 

Why are you revising Beatles-related articles in order to capitalize the initial "T" in "the Beatles"?  Proper literary style would have the group's name spelled as "the Beatles," not "The Beatles."  All recognized authorities who have published books on the Beatles (including Mark Lewisohn, Bob Spitz, Nicholas Schaffner, Hunter Davies, Allan Kozinn, and Bruce Spizer) do not capitalize the "T" in "the" unless it is the first word in a sentence.  If we want to readers to take our articles on the Beatles seriously we need to follow the proper rules of style.  Don't you agree?   MCB 8/17/2006
