Site Forum

Hi, I was just wondering what those with GPK and the international series in their collections believe the naming conventions to be for the site. I've seen 1. Personal name in all capitals and other words with just a capital for the initial letters, 2. All upper case lettering for all words and 3. All lower case except the initial letter of each word.

The reason I ask is that I entered the checklists for the Australian serries following convention 1 before realising that there were checklists entered following the other two conventions. 

I know this is a big problem with Garbage Pail sets.  Uploaders are not entering names correctly. Names (Name field) are not to be in all capitals.  Per site guidelines:

If the name is printed in all caps or all lower case due to stylistic decisions by the card company, the name should be entered into the checklist with title case capitalization.

Thanks. What is 'title case capitalisation' though sorry?

Like "Bob Smith", not "bob smith" or "BOB SMITH" or "Bob SMITH" (like the GPKs)

LIke book titles, movie titles, song titles, etc; first letter of each major word capitalized except for "a, an, the, and, but, for, at, by, to, etc"

Got it, thanks. Looks like I've got a bit of editing to do.
