If I want MODOK to show up as Modok, how do I do this? Using the curly braces doesn't work; one thing that DOES work is {{MODOK }}, but I feel like there has to be a better way.

Apologies if this is the wrong thread.

Couple things at play here...

  1. custom-titles seem to be locked to the capitalization used by the person submitting the first custom title
  2. Mental Organism Designed Only for Computing is an acronym (well, Backronym), so the title should be in all-caps.
  3. We have a thread for correcting the capitalizations of namespace/titles. Moderator tools can perform the fix better than regular editors, so we plan to move it to this subforum, and that will likely happen sometime this week/month.

The namespace for M.O.D.O.K. itself is fine; it's just that some works use Modok, and I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to do that in the entry (if you're curious, it's the two entries at Monster.Marvel Literature).

Adding anything after the name will change the pothole. [[{{ComicBook/MODOK}} Modok ]] generates Modok . Using [[{{ComicBook/MODOK}} The Modok]] produces The Modok.


Edit: Yes, those are potholes. If they were works, they'd have italics for emphasis.
