[edit] Wikipedia capitalization of "Hang On"

Correct capitalization for this album title (according to both Wikipedia's MoS, and common industry practices) is "Hang On Little Tomato" with a capitalized "On". This is because here, "On" isn't a preposition (we're not told to go and hang, on a little tomato) but part of the two-word verb "to hang on" (Hang On, Little Tomato), and it gets capitalized along its verb.

(Accordingly, the article should be moved to the correctly capitalized name...)

Not sure I agree. The band's website repeatedly uses a small "on". I am not sure what to do when the primary source uses a capitalization that differs from the MoS. For instance, there is an article at k.d. lang because that's how she capitalizes it. This is not quite the same situation, but I'm hesitant to move it without more consensus. -Big Smooth 17:49, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
