Should the name be capitalized as "German Chamomile", or should the 'c' be lower-case? - Brian Kendig 06:22, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

See the guidelines of WP:TOL and its talk page. JoJan 07:57, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
Let me clarify my question. Is there a reason why the name of this article, and the name as given in the article itself, is capitalized as "German Chamomile"? Is "German Chamomile" a proper noun for some reason? I'm just making sure before I change "chamomile" to lower case. - Brian Kendig 13:14, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
This has been discussed over and over in the last few years; see discussions in the archives of Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Tree of Life. It has been agreed upon to keep common names capitalized for plants. However newcomers sometimes tend not to follow this rule as they are unaware of past discussions. Therefore I would recommend to keep the name capitalized. JoJan 14:52, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Gotcha - thanks. I'm editing this article to make the capitalization consistent, and I'm also fixing the capitalization of Roman chamomile. - Brian Kendig 17:05, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] More information?

Could someone maybe research what in chamomile causes the sleepiness/stomach relief? -Metakraid 01:48, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
