[edit] Communism

For what it's worth, as I understand it, the word is often treated as a proper noun, and so capitalized. See dictionary.reference.com, where some dictionaries capitalize, others not. I see that WP:MOS is silent on the issue. I'll ping Tony. --jbmurray (talkcontribs) 08:29, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

To me, it's more comfortable as a common noun, like other ideologies and philosophies that aren't derived from a proper noun (such as Christianity is); cf Keynsianism vs. capitalism, and Marxism vs. communism. TONY (talk) 09:56, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
