User talk:Duncan
Duncan, why did you block users "Tanjo" and "Origamikitty"? Am I missing something?
User "Tictac" was already blocked for 2 years.

Yes. They are probably all one person, one of whom pretends to clean up spam - although makes no other contribution - presumably in the hope that we will not notice the bulk of the spam remaining.

I agree, this might be a new spam technique based on confusion. Including a picture reading test on the subscription page should prevent robots spam.

UPPER/lower Case mAMa mia!!!
Hi Duncan,
Trying to answer your question "Should title be capitalised?", I found a lot of guidelines on the Wikipedia such as:
- Wikipedia:Naming conventions
- Wikipedia:Naming conventions (capitalization)
- Wikipedia:Manual of Style (capital letters)
Though I could not find the case detailed, it seems that a title itself is not a citation. So the usual rule should also apply to it: only the first letter would be upper case (except if it is an acronym of course).
Correct me if I'm wrong, I believe we already had similar discussions with Emdebe and then we chose to capitalize the first letter of each word (the American way).
Please also note that the Wikipedia guidelines also recommend to make exceptions for foreign titles if they are not commonly used in English dictionnaries (for instance Art Nouveau is preferred vs Art nouveau).
