Talk:O (German magazine)

Latest comment: 4 months ago by Adumbrativus in topic Requested move 26 December 2023

Title edit

The article was moved from «O» to O (German magazine) on the grounds that German quotation marks are not part of the title. However, at the reference in the article there is an image of a magazine cover which shows clearly that the title includes the guillemets. In fact these are French quotation marks, presumably alluding to the French-langage Histoire d'O after which the magazine was apparently named. When they are used in German they are reversed: »O«. However German quotation marks are more commonly: „O“. So there are two reasons to believe that the marks are part of the title. I suggest that the original title was correct and propose to reverse the move. Rhomb (talk) 12:30, 29 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

«O»O (German magazine) – or O (fetish magazine) per MOS:TM. We shouldn't try to imitate logos, but rather should look to independent reliable sources written in English. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 04:27, 26 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

  • Support per nom based on use in the references. Note that the punctuation marks are a type of quotation mark (Guillemet). SilverLocust 💬 23:57, 2 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
