Since the first post of this thread, it was evident that there is a double meaning to RED:


hmmm…

What's the title for our purposes for this movie? Is it Red or RED? Keep in mind that those letters are an acronym for "Retired, Extremely Dangerous".


…odd how I see no “evidence” in the first post of this thread that T!M was eluding to any double meaning to RED. As far as I can tell his question was in regards to capitalization of the acronym: Should it be Red or RED? The only confusion appears to be yours, which is evidenced by the results of the poll .

Just a minor question to be able to estimate the relevance of this topic:

Does the database distinguish the capitalization of titles, or is it all the same Red, RED or red?
Does anyone know?


Absolutely no difference for the database, so all this discussion is totally irrilevant.

The only important thing is that the title is what you see on cover and the original title is written without dots.

This discussion isn't about database structure, so all this discussion is relevant in regards to how the Title is displayed locally, online and how it is printed on reports.

Thanks!
Already thought so, but against my experiences hoped that it might be different this time.
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

So just to get this straight:
We're having a 4-page + discussion on local preferences?
Great!
Some of us REALLY need to get laid.

No one forced you to join the discussion or even read the thread. If you need to get laid...by all means do so .

I can't agree based on what has been said so far, the rules say to CHECK capitilisation of Titles (Which is not the same as use standard capitilisation as it is elsewhere within the rules for other fields) this helps with checking that the capitilisation is correct.

We often use multiple third party sites to confirm data. Utilizing them for this topic is relevant and quite helpful.

I agree!

Me too.
No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.
The Centauri learned this lesson once.
We will teach it to them again.
Though it take a thousand years, we will be free.
