Noting that this very large edit, while not "bad" or revertable IMO, has ben made anonymously from an IP address belonging to Universal Music Group, owner of the labels which this artist is signed to. This conflict of interest appears undeclared. ☺ · Salvidrim! · ✉ 13:26, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

RfC: Page title capitalised or not

The following discussion is an archived record of a request for comment. Please do not modify it. No further edits should be made to this discussion. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.

There is consensus that the whole name should not be capitalised. The majority opinion points to the Wikipedia:Manual of Style that says that it should not be all caps. AlbinoFerret 02:10, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Should the title of this singer's page be capitalised? Btljs (talk) 10:26, 17 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure Names are often written in all caps on releases. It's not necessarily to imply that the name is intended to be all caps, it's just part of the writing style. That being said, I'm not sure what is in use here. I went straight to MOS:CAPS for clues, and found MOS:ALLCAPS; the closest thing on that list that this title resembles is "acronyms & initialisms", which does not appear to be the case here. I'm inclined to only capitalize it as a proper noun. Zeke, the Mad Horrorist ^{(Speak quickly)} _{(Follow my trail)} 00:53, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yes - If the page name was Aurora Aksnes then I would not agree with capitalizing the letters however, she identifies as AURORA so I say keep it that way. Meatsgains (talk) 00:24, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Everything on that website is in caps. I know the page name displays as "AURORA | Official Website", but all-caps displays aren't unusual in cases like this. What about this source confirms that this is how she stylizes it? Zeke, the Mad Horrorist ^{(Speak quickly)} _{(Follow my trail)} 04:57, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Considering it is her personal official site, I'm assuming this is how she would like it to be stylized. Meatsgains (talk) 18:28, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Assumptions count for very little. As Zeke said, most of that website is written in capitals, including the name of her latest album. nagual design 03:35, 5 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Are there any other people who use all caps for their performance name where this is not based on initials? will.i.am uses all lower case - which I suppose is equivalent. Btljs (talk) 10:40, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
No - According to Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Music and Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Trademarks, the name shouldn't be capitalized. Myxomatosis57 (talk) 11:04, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
No. Should be moved back to its previous title per the MOS. --Michig (talk) 12:39, 19 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
No, per WP:MOSTITLE. See precedent set at Tune-Yards, Chvrches, Odesza, etc. — foxj 22:30, 22 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Any objections if I close this and move the page back to Aurora (singer)? Btljs (talk) 08:27, 5 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Translation request

There's a lot of material that can be translated to this article from the Spanish Wikipedia. I worked on it so I can say all the content is verified. The issue with this version of the article is the redaction itself and that it is highly outdated, and also there's a lot of information about Aurora's personal life and early years that is not included and should be. Please, if someone has the time it would be a great contribution. You can check out the article in Spanish: https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aurora_Aksnes --JBOOK17 (talk) 23:31, 13 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Infections of a Different Kind (Step 1), EP or album?

It has come to my attention that Infections of a Different Kind (Step 1) has been classified as an EP. It is not. It is intended to be the first half of her second album; alternatively, it is her second album, (if you consider A Different Kind of Human (Step 2) her third). Furthermore, at a running time of 33 minutes and a track listing of 8, it explicitely contradicts the definition given in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_play . The sources that are given are not authorities on the matter: it is listed as an album on both iTunes and Spotify, and one can find a plethora of sources wherein it is referred to as an album (her reddit AMA comes to mind – https://www.reddit.com/r/popheads/comments/9ln1y2/hello_popheads_ask_me_anything/). It was inteded as an album, it is long enough to be considered one, and it is too long to be considered an EP. I therefore request that we elevate it to the status of album once more.
