Generic or Trade?

If piperacillin is a generic name, should the word be capitalized? I have no problem with it being capitalized in the title of the actual article, but it's also capitalized in the URL, making it look like a trade name. Boris B (talk) 23:53, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The URL for a given Wikipedia article uses the canonical article title, which uses first-character capitalization in Wikipedia. It has nothing to do with the article title being a proper noun. Since this happens for all articles, eg, the word "the" is capitalized in the URL, there should be little confusion. --David Iberri (talk) 02:11, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
