*{{User: | *{{User:PikFan23/sig}} - I've seen several Wikipedia article titles with italicised game names in them (such as ''Pikmin''), so why not follow Wikipedia's example? I approve. | ||

This policy proposal has been up for most of a month now and most of the users have put in their opinion. I say we go ahead and institute it. Besides, more users support it than users who oppose it... {{User: | This policy proposal has been up for most of a month now and most of the users have put in their opinion.

:Hmm, well, I didn't vote yet because, in my opinion, headers with links wouldn't look good, but I can't think of a way to explain why. It seems, though, that everyone (except maybe Prez) agrees with italics in headers, and I'm for it too, so I'm fine with putting that through. PikFan, do you even agree with links? You only mention italics in your support comment. | :Hmm, well, I didn't vote yet because, in my opinion, headers with links wouldn't look good, but I can't think of a way to explain why.

:It would be inconsistent, though, for an different title to show up on the page itself (through DISPLAYTITLE - as in, you would see 'Category: ''Pikmin''' when viewing the page, but still see 'Category: Pikmin 1' in listings), so we shouldn't have italics in page titles.

::Okay, well, firstly, I don't really mind having links in headers. Secondly, I was only thinking having italicised titles on actual articles, not category pages. Besides, Wikipedia (yes, another Wikipedia reference) doesn't italicise their category titles. If we italicised the page "Pikmin (game)" it would show up as "''Pikmin'' (game)", but in the Recent Changes it would be the same. So we only italicise actual article titles, not including category titles, etc. And of course having bold/underline in headers would not make any sense; I've seen bold headers on Pikmin Fanon and they look... weird. So let's not even go down that road... {{User: | ::Okay, well, firstly, I don't really mind having links in headers.

:::Hmm, I guess that makes sense - still have the full title, but italicise the part of it that needs it, if any. Sounds reasonable; <s>I'll add it to the policy page</s>. With bold/underline, I was more thinking because titles are already bold/underlined. <span style="font-family:times;color:#080">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|G]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050">P</span>]]'''''</span> 15:35, 25 July 2012 (EDT) | :::Hmm, I guess that makes sense - still have the full title, but italicise the part of it that needs it, if any.

I am going to assume that we can go ahead and put this policy into effect, as this proposal has been up for more than six months. {{User: | I am going to assume that we can go ahead and put this policy into effect, as this proposal has been up for more than six months. {{User:PikFan23/sig}} | ||
:1. a policy proposal being old does not mean everyone agrees on it; 2. I added part of it months ago (just allowing italics in headings). The only other thing is links, for which it seems there's no real consensus (I'm against them, but haven't voted against because I'm not against italics). <span style="font-family:times;color:#080">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|G]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050">P</span>]]'''''</span> 18:19, 10 January 2013 (EST) | :1. a policy proposal being old does not mean everyone agrees on it; 2.

::Thanks for clearing that up; I was confused. I'll go ahead and begin italicising all headers that have game names in them, then. {{User: | ::Thanks for clearing that up; I was confused. I'll go ahead and begin italicising all headers that have game names in them, then. {{User:PikFan23/sig}} | ||
