against simple and consistent guidelines applying to particular subjects (and, more to the disruptiveness point, constant interference with editors who are not engaging in such anti-guideline activism, but just following the guidelines and the sourcing) are the only reason there is any "struggle" at all and the only reason it is dragging it out into "eternity". It needs to stop.

The very putting of this in terms of "lowercasers" as a label to pin on editors who are simply following the guidelines and the sourcing is a very bad sign. This kind of "us vs. them" approach is the complete and sole cause of any "eternal internal struggle" on such matters. Tooth-and-nail resistance

sick to death of people refusing to go through the process when it's obvious as can be that moves will be objected to. It's as if some people believe they should be above having to find consensus when there's a solid chance something may be objected to. If you have issues with the user's conduct take

So they rip apart an existing team, franchise and fan base, simply to stock a new one as a fop to certain owners. Can someone please find a third party source that rips the NHL, the Gunds and anyone else involved for allowing something as corrupt and stupid as this to occur? The NHL in those days was

need to have a capitalization battleground about every single imaginable case connected to sports or any other topic you happen to be particularly interested in. This kind of stuff is a tremendous waste of editorial time and attention, and a marked and worsening drain on inter-editor collegiality.

I note that yes, each expansion draft the NHL has held was under varying circumstances, but it is irksome that the charts and presentation are not handled consistently from article to article. Aside from that, there are inconsistencies within this one: states that the Sharks were to take 14 North

I just created this page but couldn't find any kind of round-by-round data for the draft, just a list of the players chosen by San Jose. I have no recollection of this event and don't know how the draft was conducted (indeed information in general about this seems to be really scarce, hence me

creating a page about it), but it seems like there should be a list of round-by-round choices for both San Jose and Minnesota. Of course the draft itself was not very important or interesting (the purpose for it and the decision to have it, more so), but it would be nice to be accurate.

A result of missing information that I will try to add. They did in fact take 14 skaters and two goalies, who were playing professionally for Minnesota or Kalamazoo. The final 8 and 2 were players that the North Stars had rights to, but were either in junior, college, high school, or

admins need to stop entertaining "revert these moves that were compliant with the guidelines and sources, simply because an RM wasn't held, and force an RM to be held" nonsense. This is annoying, pointless, and sucks away editorial time and collegiality.

Tony1, I think you've come up with a good description of at least two reasons why lowercasers want to lowercase. Someday somebody is going to do a thesis on "Casing on Knowledge, the Eternal Internal Struggle for the Perfect Proper Name".

the 1967 expansion has its own article and has a case to gain promotion to upper case, except it faces a tougher fight. To the expansion drafts, it's hasta la vista.
830: 298: 630:β€”Why do we want to poke readers' eyes out with caps when they're not signifying proper names? The lack of logic creates unnecessary tension in the text. 517:
Then you should have let me fix per guidelines instead of reverting, causing lots of editors to need to spend time on a many-times-settled question.
