I saw the page [[Hatsune Miku]] just now. The other Japanese characters pages are titled with family names coming last, but this page is different. I searched Wikipedia and they seem to use [[enwiki:Hatsune Miku|Hatsune Miku]], too. I wonder why. I wonder whether the page should be moved to ''Miku Hatsune''. Why isn't there a ''条目命名规范'' at English Moegirlpedia? —[[User:Honoka55|<img src="https://img.moegirl.org/common/avatars/200315/original.png?ver=58a905d4" style="width: 2.5em;border-radius: 50%;box-shadow: 1px 1px 2px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.45);"/> <span style="color:#FF6600">Honoka55</span>]]([[User_talk:Honoka55|<span style="color:#A560DF">Message me</span>]]·[[Special:Contributions/Honoka55|<span style="color:#A560DF">My contributions</span>]]) 17:25, 20 July 2017 (CDT)

There's already [[UK girl]] and [[US girl]], and even [[History girl]] existing on Moegirlpedia. But I've found that {{re|切尔西}} has created [[Soviet Girl]] recently. Should the letter ''g'' in the word ''girl'' be capitalized? There are not rules about this on Moegirlpedia, so let's have a discussion~ I prefer ''Girl'', for they are proper nouns. Maybe some users disagree, but please give your reasons below! —[[User:Honoka55|<img src="https://img.moegirl.org/common/avatars/200315/original.png?ver=58a905d4" style="width: 2.5em;border-radius: 50%;box-shadow: 1px 1px 2px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.45);"/> <span style="color:#FF6600">Honoka55</span>]]([[User_talk:Honoka55|<span style="color:#A560DF">Message me</span>]]·[[Special:Contributions/Honoka55|<span style="color:#A560DF">My contributions</span>]]) 18:49, 24 July 2017 (CDT)
 
:I think since "xxx Girl" is a title, it should follow [http://grammar.yourdictionary.com/capitalization/rules-for-capitalization-in-titles.html Rules for Capitalization in Titles of Articles].

:::Besides this situation, we have more situations like how to deal a sentence when it's a title, etc. Page [[Help:Title Naming Standard]] has created, but before we have discussed or be approved by patrollers or sysops, it should be empty or just add a info box to show it's not approved entirely.

:Proper nouns should have all of its initial letters capitalized. Section from Wikipedia:
 
<pre>Words or phrases derived from proper names are generally capitalized, even when they are not themselves proper names. For example, Londoner is capitalized because it derives from the proper name London, but it is not itself a proper name (it can be limited: the Londoner, some Londoners). Similarly, African, Africanize, and Africanism are not proper names, but are capitalized because Africa is a proper name. </pre> Here Soviet Girl itself may not be a proper name, but since it was derived from the USSR, which is a proper name, it should be capitalized.

== Naming ==
 
 
 
I found some names should be improved. [[Template:Small GPS Bar]] should be Small '''Navigation''' Bar. GPS is a abbreviation of Global Position System. I think it's not good to use GPS to express a meaning of navigation.
 
And the names of [[:Category:Works by writer]],[[:Category:Songs by genre‎]] seem invalid.

::If QQ counts as a "channel", we do. At least on a sectional basis. As I'm only working on the Girls' Frontline part on both zh- and en-moe, I know that there're at least 2 groups active.
 
 
 
:Judging by the single-digit (might be double sometime later but this is an unstable flag) number of active editors, I'm going ''against'' it.
