The name of this WHO programme or network is ePORTUGUÊSe and not EPORTUGUESe... As WIKI does not allow to start a name with a samll cap letter, it is necessary to include Programme at the beginning... www.who.int/eportuguese/en

Thank you Regina Ungerer

Place here your rationale for the proposed page name change, ideally referring to applicable naming convention policies and guidelines, and providing evidence in support where appropriate. Ungerer (talk) 18:24, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

• Oppoose both names. Neither of them is acceptable per WP:ALLCAPS or the WP:MOSTM.--70.49.83.93 (talk) 20:15, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

• Comment: This page has currently (as of 14:10, 17 July 2012 (UTC)) been moved to the Wikipedia project space which is clearly wrong. The MediaWiki software will not allow it to be moved with to either ePORTUGUESe or ePORTUGUÊSe, although I'm not quite sure why. (I susepct it has to do with all caps in the title.) The argument that a lowercase first letter is disallowed is clearly wrong: just look at iPad. One only needs to add the {{lowercase title}} template to the page to cause the first letter to be rendered in lower case. However, with the page now in the project space, and MediaWiki disallowing moves to either logical target, I'll leave it to an admin to resolve the proper location.

comment I have asked for this article to be move protected, so that whatever title is chosen, only an admin (and not a regular user) can rename it, when this is closed. -- 76.65.131.160 (talk) 08:49, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

Comment Further to some points raised earlier in this discussion:

WP:MOSTM Suggests avoiding all capitals, even if the trademarked name uses them. So an article on the trademarked term REALTOR® becomes Realtor. However, in this case, we have a trademark that clearly uses a lower case first letter (similar to iPad), so we should opt for ePortuguêse (with a redirect from ePortuguese for users without easy access to a circumflex).
