Oppose —Capping the D for "district" is usually not done on WP. MOSCAPS says to minimise unnecessary capitalisation. Tony (talk) 00:16, 11 November 2017 (UTC) [ reply ]
Comment - "usually not done on WP" - everyone is free to look at the pages given in the RM (Category:Districts of Abkhazia , Category:Districts of Belarus , Category:Districts of Kazakhstan , Category:Districts of Transnistria ) and then to decide if the claim by Tony1 is justified by truth or not. Additionally: districts/municipalities in Georgia : Category:Districts of Georgia (country) and elsewhere in WP, cf.: USA Washington County , Belarus Minsk District , Ukraine Desnianskyi District, Kiev , Kazakhstan Abay District, East Kazakhstan , Vietname Thoại Sơn District , Iran Asara District , Russia Dmitrovsky District, Moscow Oblast . 78.55.225.61 (talk ) 00:12, 12 November 2017 (UTC) [ reply ]
Oppose and RM the other articles in the category (and the subcategory names): If you see the original Cyrillic, the word we're translating as "district" is not capitalized. This is the same as ongoing Chinese railway RM: overcapitalization to suit personal preferences, and basically is a form of WP:OR . — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ >ʌ ⱷ҅ᴥ ⱷʌ < 05:29, 11 November 2017 (UTC) [ reply ]
Relevant are rules of the English language, capitalisation of other languages is irrelevant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.55.174.216 (talk ) 00:14, 12 November 2017 (UTC) [ reply ]
