[edit] Capitalisation
Is it correctly spelt with a capital or small r? Some rivers are capitalised, some aren't. I hope this was downsized for accurate reasons, not part of wiki's bizarre fascination with downcasing uppercased words and making a fool of itself. FearÉIREANN 05:03 26 Jun 2003 (UTC)
Should be Waikato River with capital R Tiles 05:20 26 Jun 2003 (UTC)
Heh. You are going to have establish a Capitalisation Guards to ensure this remains with a capital R. There are a bunch of lower-casing nutters on wiki. If they can try to make Prime Minister into Prime minister and Governor-General into Governor-general, (or rather Governors-General into Governor-generals!!!) they will try to lowercase anything. Guard this page! :-) FearÉIREANN 05:36 26 Jun 2003 (UTC)
Guard in place. There are spiritual values attached to the river and any assault on its mana could lead to dire consequences. Tiles 05:54 26 Jun 2003 (UTC)
