To quote the editing reason Pastykake left, "For the record, I decapitalized metroid, chozo, etc. because they're not proper nouns any more than dog or badger. As far as inconsistency within the page, that would only happen if I missed one or people keep adding capitalized instances of regular nouns. As far as inconsistency with other Metroid pages, I'm tempted to apply it to all relevant pages now that you mention it. However, because there are so many that I probably won't, your point is taken."
I'm looking at my guide book right now and they're all capitalized there. (Yes, I made sure they weren't used at the start of a sentence when capitalized.) It needs to be reinstated.

I checked the intro cutscenes of the games, and the words are all capitalized there, too.
there is a mistake in the arc welding section samus says she owes the metroid her life twice over in FUSION refering to super and fusion (do to in fusion its DNA being used to save her)

I don't know what this fits as for a trope (even if it may be YMMV) but it fits here:
What's a trope for when another fanbase of an entirely different series is trying to warn another fanbase when a developer they don't like, moves to their game.
For example, I find that Castlevania fans are trying to warn Metroid fans that Mercury Steam could mess up their game since they believe that Mercury Steam made the Castlevania games "not Castlevania" anymore. Meanwhile most Metroid fans seem to not care as much and/or they may not understand because they may have not played Castlevania: Lords of Shadow games.
What trope would that fall under if there is one?

That sounds Too Rare to Trope. Maybe once the game is out, the reception will lend this note to a trope.
That would require not only the game to come out bad, but also that it be Mercury Steam's fault, cause it could easily be the fault of many other elements, including Yoshio Sakamoto's involvement. And even then, there's the Too Rare To Trope issue that was brought up.
Personally, I don't think it might be an issue at all. The circumstances under which Mercury Steam is working for this game differ quite a bit from those under which the Lords of Shadow games were made.
Any reason why a bunch of items and creatures have had their uppercase letters removed? They're all technically proper nouns.
