Marx's Book

Is not "The Eastern Question" name of one of the Marx's books? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.100.214.62 (talk) 16:02, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It is. Jim.henderson (talk) 02:13, 11 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the move request was: moved —usernamekiran (talk) 14:06, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Eastern Question → Eastern question
National Question → National question
Roman Question → Roman question
Royal Question → Royal question
Schleswig-Holstein Question → Schleswig-Holstein question
Serbian Question → Serbian question
Spanish Question → Spanish question
Spanish Question (United Nations) → Spanish question (United Nations)
Adriatic Question → Adriatic question

– Per MOS:CAPS and WP:NCCAPS (these phrases are not consistently capitalized in sources), and to be WP:CONSISTENT with all the other entries in Category:National questions. Some textual cleanup of the over-capitalization will also be needed, and some subcategories will need renaming. PS: National Question most especially can't be a proper name, as it is the general-concept article for this sort of political issue. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 18:00, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. A statement like "these phrases are not consistently capitalized in sources" needs citations. —Brigade Piron (talk) 20:58, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The sources are in the article. Primergrey (talk) 01:06, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support—Textbook example of what should be downcased on WP. Tony (talk) 00:30, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Not much to debate, given the sources. Primergrey (talk) 01:06, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Some of these are redirects (Macedonian Question and Albanian Question). I don't see why we would want to move a redirect. Adumbrativus (talk) 03:15, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirects are ineligible as current titles in move requests and have been removed from this proposal. P.I. Ellsworth - ed. ^put'r there 07:36, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support some "questions" such as German question and Armenian question were already moved because of lack of consistent capitalization. Although some of these—especially Eastern Question—could be argued to have consistent capitalization, the consistency argument weighs in favor of moving. (t · c) buidhe 15:49, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support per all above. I also took care of the Albanian Question redirect. Dicklyon (talk) 19:16, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I did the case cleanups and such on these articles, since nobody else did. Some were clearly about the term (National question and Serbian question) so I italicized in the leads. Another (Spanish question (United Nations)) was written to say about the term but really had a topic, so I fixed that lead, too. Please check/improve. Dicklyon (talk) 23:22, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
