message: I wonder why it is "Krav Maga" (which seems like a person's name) and not "krav maga"? --Spiros71 (talk) 08:55, 8 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Most of the sources in the article refer to it as "Krav Maga". --Λeternus (talk) 09:21, 6 August 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: But on what basis is it a proper noun? I think normal style standards supersede improper typography. Holy (talk) 16:43, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

text: "It has always been done this way" is a valid excuse for nothing. It's a common noun and should be in lower case. Kortoso (talk) 23:34, 7 January 2016 (UTC)

replies: text: I have always assumed it is capitalized due to national origin of the word (IE due to the conventions of capitalization in Hebrew), using the multiple sources that consistently capitalize it it seems well sourced this is the convention for spelling Krav Maga, regardless it that convention is understood.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bverji (talk • contribs) 03:26, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: But there are no capitalization conventions in Hebrew, because there are no case distinctions in its alphabet. 89.64.70.7 (talk) 22:45, 2 September 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Not sure of the grammatical considerations. I tried searching for articles that explain why Krav Maga is capitalized, but could not find any explanation. That being said the articles listed in the bibliography and all the articles I researched on the etymology of Krav Maga pretty consistently have it capitalized. Given the choice of application of general rules of grammar vs many sources that consistently capitalize the word I think the convention used by the plethora of sources has to be followed. Otherwise, the application of grammar rules used between languages, scripts, and the etymology borders on editorializing. Bverji (talk) 03:36, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

message: I just semi-protected the page to stop an edit war about a serial comma. The relevant guideline is MOS:SERIAL. Both having the comma and not having the comma is grammatically correct in this context. If there are specific reasons to have (or not have) the serial comma in this specific instance, please provide them here. Generally articles should not be changed regarding such issues unless there's a good reason - personal preference is not a good reason. Huon (talk) 00:16, 4 February 2019 (UTC)

message: The eye-opening article by Guy Mor
The Case for the Recognition of Krav-Maga as Part of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Israel describes the roots of Krav Maga also before Imi Lichenfeld. That should be added to the History section.
