newt or Newt

While it's true the logo is spelled with "n" instead of "N" if every Wikipedia article name was based on how it was advertised, alot of titles would BE LIKE THIS. 71.182.145.40 (talk) 18:33, 16 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

its spelled as "newt" in press material presented at the announcement, if my recollection of the listed citations are correct. No special font used. SpikeJones (talk) 19:22, 16 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. We don't write "A Bug's Life" a bug's life. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.107.153.120 (talk) 21:15, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'll reiterate -- in the typewritten press material provided from Disney, "newt" is used. For Pixar, it was "A Bug's Life". Hence the difference. SpikeJones (talk) 21:56, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This is an encyclopedia, and thus correct English is used in preference to however some company wants to style their trademark. As a name, the title of a film is capitalised. See Wikipedia:Manual of Style (capital letters) and various sub-sections, such as Wikipedia:Manual of Style (trademarks) for guidance. Nouse4aname (talk) 19:03, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
To elaborate Disney actually calls A Bug's Life, "a bug's life" while Pixar doesn't. I expect the same happening with Newt, so lets keep it capitalized with correct English, after all, it's a title.Martini833 (talk) 17:29, 22 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This is why we have {{lowercase}} — Preceding unsigned comment added by ViperSnake151 (talkcontribs)
Thank you! Alientraveller (talk) 09:41, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Please read WP:MOSTM. As a trademark and title of a film, the name "Newt" is capitalised. The stylistic formatting of the title is meaningless. This is an encyclopedia, and thus we use correct English in favour of stylistic preferences. Nouse4aname (talk) 15:03, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Also, reliable secondary publications look to be basically unanimous about using "Newt" per this Google News search. We should definitely capitalize, marketing predilections aside. Croctotheface (talk) 19:19, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Logos aside, if "newt" is the title of the movie, that's how it should be written. (talk) 18:22, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Plot

Are you sure that's the actual plot? It seems a bit strange for a disney film... Princess-pink95 (talk) 13:45, 7 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
