Talk:Archy and mehitabel

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I have redirected Archy and Mehitabel to this page, but perhaps they should be switched around, so the properly capitalised version holds the content, with this page being a redirect. Didn't want to do this myself, as I don't know how it affects page history etc. HappyDog 00:20, 19 Dec 2003 (UTC)

It's properly capitalized here, actually, but the redirect is a good idea. - Hephaestos 00:21, 19 Dec 2003 (UTC)

[edit] Capitalization of Archy/Mehitabel?

The name of the article should probably remain as-is (without capitalization) because that's the proper name of the series of poems/editorials; however, just because archy can't reach the Shift key to type his name with a capital letter doesn't mean his name isn't capitalized. Indeed, because the author capitalized Archy and Mehitabel when writing in his own persona, I say all instances of the names that aren't part of a title (or something else Archy himself would've "typed") should be capitalized.

The name of the book is "archy and mehitabel." The names of the characters are "Archy" and "Mehitabel." Carlo 20:18, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
