 * That would make sense if this were Wikipedia, where the first character of a template name is case-insensitive. Here on Wiktionary, there are hardly any template aliases with the first letter capitalized. The only example I can recall is and, which redirect to , but on the other hand, there's  as an alias for , different from , a quotation template (very confusing!). In general, we don't have many semantically unnecessary capitals in template names – for instance, capitals are fine in proper nouns  or titles of works  or abbreviations  or special cases like the   prefix for reference templates – and template redirects tend to be names that save space (like  &rarr; ). Having a capitalized version of  is very unusual. — Eru·tuon 07:03, 19 October 2018 (UTC)
