If someone's looking for yet another arduous task, having all the individual theory pages renamed so "XXXXX's theories" is spelled correctly with a lowercase t in theories would be quite an eye-pleaser. But page renaming is pretty icky sometimes.

I think we've tried this before... the end result was several days of back and forth lower case and upper case edit reverts with the uppercase team winning the battle.

I'm willing to do it, if everyone agrees.

Ths is the kind of things a bot would be suited for, though. I forgot to set it XP

I agree XD

I know the debate has been going on for some while. A consensus was offered at one point (by Mordikai I think) that the theory page titles would have lowercase "t"s for 'theory", but individual theories on those pages that used the word "Theory" would have it capitalized as such.

Which makes sense to me. It's the best of both views, and it falls more in line with other page names that aren't altogether proper nouns.

I agree. In general I don't like decapitalizing titles, since most often I see location names as proper names or nicknames we have chosen for them. But in the case of theories I don't see any reason in keeping the word with a T, it looks much cleaner in minuscules.

Unfortunately I won't have much time to help there; I managed to finish off everything else theory-related (aka the pages Gem found that needed sorting) but between doing torrential downpours of video for Submachine Weekend (XD) and studying for one last final on Monday, I won't be able to do anything until a couple hours after the big release.

Don't worry. If there's something important you want to do before Sub10, you can count on us :) Good luck on the exam!

I've done theory voting plenty of times before, so don't worry, I got this.

My god, the new locations are gonna be a nightmare... And the theories too, some debunked ones might even be confirmed now.
