Request for speedy deletion (G6)

[edit]

@Ansh666: In MOS:JOBTITLES it says "Offices, titles, and positions ... are capitalized only in the following cases: ... When a formal title for a specific entity ... is addressed as a title or position in and of itself ...". The title provincial secretary is or was used for a whole bunch of people at the same time, not like "King of France", which is a formal title for a specific entity (there was usually only one such person at a time with that title). This is not a controversial request. If you do not want to take the time to read and understand the MoS, then allow me to restore the speedy deletion request and then leave it alone for another admin to handle.

Okay, I'll move it, but I trust you'll fix the rest of the article, where it's capitalised in literally every use. And to reply in the tone of your last sentence: MoS is dumb and anyone who spends time on trying to understand its pointless bureaucratic intricacies is wasting their time. ansh666 03:12, 29 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I'll clean up caps in the article. Happy editing! Chris the speller yack 04:30, 29 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
