Talk:National Education Union

Ongoing edits re: capitalization

Edited for capitalization for union name and abbreviation. Changed word in section that suggests that all corporate "branding" will have the name in all lower case as will the abbreviation. This currently does not appear to be the case and the lower-case branding is only evident on the logo itself, even on the union's own materials. Evidence for this is the website which uses capital letters in the grammatically correct places such as the name of the union (a proper noun), and for the abbreviation NEU. It also includes the definite article before the name. http://www.neu.org.uk

Suggest that in keeping with grammatical norms and MOS (links below), capitalization remains until clear branding guidance is provided by the NEU (or linked by original author). I am closely involved with this union and I haven't seen any brand guidance yet or anything stating that the style suggested originally is for anything other than the logo image alone.

Also refer to:
MOS:INSTITUTIONS,
MOS:ACRONYMS,
and importantly MOS:CUE, at § Respect for official organization names which, as we can see from the NEU website linked above, is capitalized by the organization themselves when used other than on the logo and includes the definite article.

Include Republic of Ireland as well?

I noticed in this Annual Returns doc it shows there are 40 members in the RoI, shall we include RoI in the list of countries? Jonjonjohny (talk) 13:55, 31 January 2020 (UTC)

General Secretary Term End

My understanding is that Daniel Kebede’s term in office does not begin until 1 September (the new school year). Daniel Kebede elected General Secretary of NEU from 1 September. Suggest previous edit is reversed until then. Madeinsane (talk) 07:53, 10 June 2023 (UTC)
