Chief justices RM

An WP:RM determined, on unanimous WP:SNOW WP:CON, that such articles are in title case. I'm on mobile so can't link to it. Howard the Duck (talk) 23:32, 6 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:Chief Justice of Afghanistan#Requested move 5 July 2025 Howard the Duck (talk) 23:34, 6 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, the article title can be title case... but what I changed isn't the article title. What I changed is modified by "the", so it should properly be lowercase. See MOS:JOBTITLES. —Eyer (he/him) If you reply, add {{reply to|Eyer}} to your message. 23:47, 6 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The in The Bronx

Hi Eyer. Noticed your revert of my using a "The" cap "T" in The Bronx in Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's article here and was wondering if you could help me. I couldn't find the Wikipedia precept for your edit summary, "Lowercase in running text. The exception is “The Hague”. “The Bronx” isn’t listed as an exception", as I only found The Bronx with cap "T" in Naming conventions – other proper names (The Bronx) that seems to allow my version, but seems only applicable to the start of article titles. Apparently there is a precept I haven't found, so could you direct me? Thanks, Quaerens-veritatem (talk) 03:52, 8 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sarno

@Eyer:

Hi Eyer, thanks for your message. This is 136.53.37.229. I thought I did adequately explain why I removed those sources. I put my reasoning in the edit summary. Source 6 asserts without evidence that "mainstream medicine scoffs at Dr. Sarno's theories". And source 7 is unavailable. The YouTube video is private. 136.53.37.229 (talk) 18:34, 17 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
