This thread is here to process pages that have been discovered with the wrong capitalization, such as Ymmv instead of YMMV. Both namespace and title errors are fixed here.
Please put the request into "* NameSpace.Foo to Namespace.Foo" format.
Please list out any subpages that need fixing as well. You can use the auto-disambiguator to check the capitalization of all the pages under a given title. For example, to check the capitalization of pages under the title "Foo", you can go to A.Foo (or any other non-existent namespace under that title).
If a request or several are left unprocessed for some time, click the holler button on the upper-right of the post to send a request for moderator assistance.

VideoGame.MOTHER 3 -> VideoGame.Mother 3. I'm pretty sure the latter capitalization is the official one based on Wikipedia and other sources I found.

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?Wait, that hadn't been moved yet?
(Wikipedia is unreliable because it has its own capitalization policy, but English-language sources tend to prefer Mother, title-case.)
I had a dog-themed avatar before it was cool.x2 I believe Smash uses Mother and not MOTHER. That's the best we got for official name capitalization from Nintendo.

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?This is a pinned thread, I don't think there's any sense in bumping it. That would only bump on it on people's watchlists. Try hollering instead.
The following pages have not been fixed:
- Cross Wicking (to Crosswicking)
- Welcome to TV Tropes (to WelcomeToTVTropes)
- Cross-Dressing Voices (to CrossdressingVoices)
- The Story to End All Stories (to Fanfic)
- InuYasha to Inuyasha
- LIterature.A Curse Dark As Gold (to Literature)

ComicBook.X Treme Xmen 2001 to ComicBook.X Treme X Men 2001 please!
Covered in Star Wars Cleanup, Deadpool, and Web Video sand. I'm not coarse and rough, but I get everywhere.Requesting either changing these typos:
- Triva.Pod Taku —> Trivia.Pod Taku
- SildingScaleOfIdealismVersusCynicism.Visual Novels —> SlidingScaleOfIdealismVersusCynicism.Visual Novels
Or let me know if these are the types that get a recreate/cutlist. Thank you!

Covered in Star Wars Cleanup, Deadpool, and Web Video sand. I'm not coarse and rough, but I get everywhere.Those two pages were created only two weeks ago and had only one edit (the page creation) in the edit history, so I just moved them by hand and put the old ones on the cutlist.
This thread is for capitalization fixes of namespaces and page titles; the pages are under the correct name, but with the wrong capitalization. For pages that are under the wrong name, and are old enough or have an extensive enough history that you don't want to throw out the edit history by the "manually move and cutlist the old one" method, ask in the edit requests thread to have it moved.
Thank you for clarifying and for taking care of that! I've gotten confused over what gets recreated/cutlisted, what to request moves for, etc.

Code Name? Or Codename? Right now it's the former...
Disambig Needed: Help with those issues! tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13324299140A37493800&page=24#comment-576"WMg" in WMg.Super Kirby Clash should be WMG
It's also mentioned in Sandbox.Pages In Accidentally Miscapitalised Namespaces
Kirby is awesome.Videogame.Zoo Race should be VideoGame.Zoo Race.
I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.Videogame.New Style Boutique 3 Styling Star —> VideoGame.New Style Boutique 3 Styling Star
With this thread, we no longer need to do anything except paste page contents into a sandbox and make the title change request here?
Edited by Tabs on Sep 2nd 2020 at 8:16:41 AM
You don't need to create a sandbox; the mod who handles the request temporarily transfers the page, history attached, to a sandbox in the act of fixing it. For the transfer to work, there has to be no page at the location they're transferring it to.
I meant Pages In Accidentally Miscapitalised Namespaces First Half and Pages In Accidentally Miscapitalised Namespaces Second Half. If those don't get used any longer as part of this process, can they be cut listed?
I'm not sure if this is the right place for this, but Fish Tronaut needs to have its title changed to Fishtronaut. It's supposed to be a One-Word Title.
HeadScratchers.Legion should be Headscratchers.Legion.
I'm back!Should Welcome to TV Tropes be at Welcome to TV Tropes?
... I clicked preview and the custom title didn't appear on the second one, either. That's weird.
Trouble Cube continues to be a general-purpose forum for those who desire such a thing.Quotes.Mindscrew should be Quotes.Mind Screw.
ShoutOut.ARTHUR shouldn't be in ALLCAPS.

back lolTechnically this isn't capitalization, but it's a bad namespace nonetheless.
CharactersBorderlands2.Handsome Jack should be Characters.Borderlands Handsome Jack (omitting the 2 because he appears elsewhere in the series as well).
I had a dog-themed avatar before it was cool.
~ccorb: For that, you want a custom title. I've put one in, but see How to Make a Custom Title for future reference.
This thread is about pages' actual capitalization. For example, when you write out Spaghetti and Gondolas, you write it as SpaghettiAndGondolas. That's the actual capitalization.
To change the display capitalization, you create a custom title for it. That way, when you write SpaghettiAndGondolas, it shows up looking like this: Spaghetti and Gondolas.
To use an example that actually has a custom title right now: for the page Played for Laughs, the actual capitalization is Played For Laughs, and the custom title is Played for Laughs.
