905 Derby → 905 derby – Articles throughout Wikipedia are stylized in a way where "derby" and "rivalry" are lowercase (i.e. Manchester derby, M69 derby, Cavalry FC–Forge FC rivalry. Changing the name to have "derby" lowercase would match that formatting. Rylesbourne (talk) 17:43, 23 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

Oppose. For whatever reason, "905 Derby" is usually treated as a proper noun by the media:

"...as they defeated 905 Derby rivals York United by a 2-0 score" CPL official
"York, coming off of a 905 Derby reverse at Forge last weekend" Northern Tribune
"Forge beat Valour in Winnipeg and York9 in the 905 Derby before..." CBC Sports
"They lost 3-2 to their 905 Derby rival" The Hamilton Spectator BLAIXX 00:18, 24 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
