North West Cambridge DevelopmentNorth West Cambridge development – Per WP:NCCAPS, we prefer lowercase, and there are quite a few sources which don't treat "Development" as part of the proper name for this place.[1][2][3] The site for the project itself,[4] also puts "DEVELOPMENT" in a less bold font than the rest of the title, suggesting that the proper name is "North West Cambridge" while the "development" is more of a descriptor.  — Amakuru (talk) 10:58, 31 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

  • Support for the reasons given by nom. Cambridge News ([1] above) uses LC throughout. Faithfull+Gould ([2] above) uses caps in the title but LC in running text. If there is a distinction, it could be that "D" refers to the project and "d" to the result. Narky Blert (talk) 16:32, 1 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
  • Weak oppose On this Google News search result: "north+west+cambridge+development"&tbm=nws (may be different for different users), there are 43 instances of "North West Cambridge Development" and 21 of "North West Cambridge development". Nevertheless, I think it's a minor issue and am fine with either. cmɢʟeeτaʟκ 14:34, 4 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
  • Support Not wikilawyering, but sometimes we do have to go with policies rather than going with what other websites say. In this case, WP:NCCAPS. —usernamekiran(talk) 12:43, 8 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
