Talk:New South Wales Xplorer

message: This train is known as XPLORER by its owner/operator. There is no basis for enforcing title case on it. Just as we don't have an article on Iphones, we generally respect the names owners give their property. The Qantas and Vodafone examples provided by User:Turingway are spurious – neither company refers to itself in all upper or lower case. S/he is confusing brandmarks with corporate style.

replies: text: Should you wish to revert this change, I would suggest you provide some sort of reference to where NSW TrainLink has altered its corporate style – at present the organisation's fleet page is pretty clear on the subject. Mqst north (talk) 03:58, 20 August 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: First paragraph of WP:ALLCAPS seems fairly clear that all caps should be avoided when only a stylistic function which this is, presumably to bring in line with its stablemate, the New South Wales XPT. While NSW TrainLink and Transport NSW do use both caps  and non-caps , other sources such as enthusiast magazines, published works and trade cites appear to universally use non-caps.  Nonetheless will seek further clarification. Turingway (talk) 21:06, 29 August 2015 (UTC)
replies: text:  Even if you've found a few isolated examples of style mistakes on the TrainLink website, I trust you're not suggesting that XPLORER isn't the correct house style. The only relevant matters in this discussion are what is the corporate style (without question, all caps), and the extent to which the guidelines you quote apply (arguable, but something about which reasonable people can disagree). Hopefully we can keep the conversation focused on the latter point. Mqst north (talk) 06:27, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Our Manual of Style says "When deciding how to format a trademark, editors should choose among styles already in use by sources (not invent new ones) and then choose the style that most closely resembles standard English, regardless of the preference of the trademark owner."  The last seven words are quite clear. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 21:18, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

text: Hiya folks, found this debate through the Teahouse. A quick Google search appears to show that while "XPLORER" is also used, "Xplorer" is the most common way to capitalize the word, appearing both in general parlance and in reliable sources. Obviously a Google search is not exactly strong proof, but in this case it seems rather clear to me that "Xplorer" would be the correct, policy-compliant capitalization for both the title and the article body, as per Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Trademarks, and I don't see much to be gained by a more exhaustive analysis. Compare with Asus, for example. Cheers! --Ashenai (talk) 21:50, 14 September 2015 (UTC)
replies: text:   for the reasons that Cullen328, DESiegel and Ashenai gave; "Xplorer" is the correct spelling, "XPLORER" is a stylistic affectation. 71.41.210.146 (talk) 06:38, 15 September 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Capitalisation 

message: :The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
The result of the move request was: not moved. The assertion that the proposed title was the WP:COMMONNAME proved to be controversial, and participants also expressed concern that the use of the term "railcar" would be unclear.
