Talk:large cap

Added to requests for deletion
I've added this page to requests for deletion, because, as far as I can tell, it is the sum of its parts. Cap already has capitalization as one of its definitions. This is my first RFD, so please correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks. TeragR (talk) 22:54, 26 May 2013 (UTC)


 * But it doesn't mean "large capitalisation". It means a company that has one. Equinox ◑ 22:56, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Ummm... Yes, you're right. Is there a way we could adapt that as another definition for cap? I'm guessing that you could also use small cap, medium cap, etc., so it doesn't seem right to have separate pages for all those. TeragR (talk) 23:31, 27 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Other good points made at WT:RFD. Discussion ended. Kept. TeragR (talk) 00:02, 30 May 2013 (UTC)

 * A large cap is a company, but a cap (alone) is merely a capitalisation, so seems to be more than SoP. Equinox ◑ 23:07, 26 May 2013 (UTC)

 * But large capitalization doesn't mean anything, or at least, it doesn't mean what [[large cap]] says. Keep. Mglovesfun (talk) 16:39, 27 May 2013 (UTC)


 * First I thought it was referring to large capitalization as in WRITING LIKE THIS, YOU KNOW. But that doesn't seem to be meant here, so I vote keep. -- Liliana • 17:26, 27 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Either Keep large cap and add mid cap and small cap or, because the terms are mostly used and heard by those who know what sense of cap is meant, making them SoP for them, Delete. It really depends on one's attitude about specialized SoP terms, something we are not at all consistent about, with exclusion seemingly being applied sometimes to terms we dislike for other reasons.

 * Understood. Thanks. Kept. TeragR (talk) 23:52, 29 May 2013 (UTC)
 * TeragR's de-tagged it and nobody's retagged it so I consider the matter closed. Mglovesfun (talk) 22:12, 2 June 2013 (UTC)
