[edit] Survey - in support of the move

  1. Support as nominee, and as per previous discussions at Talk:The 11 O'Clock Show, Talk:WP:MOSTM and Talk:WP:MOSCAPS. --DeLarge 21:53, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
  2. Support. Forget whether or not this is common usage - "o'Clock" is patently incorrect. Chris cheese whine 22:30, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
  3. Support. Per above, plus: While an argument may be made that prepositions in titles are lowercase, the "o" in "o'clock", while representing a preposition in a contraction, is in fact no longer a preposition, but part of an adverb. While it may be contracted from "of the clock", I daresay it is no more separable into its former components than "fortnight" to "fourteen night". --SigPig |SEND - OVER 14:53, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
  4. Support per SigPig. "Of the clock" essentially becomes a single word, due to the contraction (which a quick glance into my good old Oxford dictionary confirms) so it should be either "O'Clock" or "O'clock" in titles. - Cyrus XIII 11:46, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
