Forum:Rank and title capitalisation

The rule of capitalisation for ranks and titles is that if they're referring to a specific person they need to be capitalized but when they're on their own they need to be lower case:

i.e. "Vice Admiral Strawberry has an epic hat." would be correct.

"The Vice Admirals would all get pwned by Gaimon" would be incorrect. Correct would be "The vice admirals would all get pwned by Gaimon" (and you know they would :D)

Since I don't think a bot can do this, just please put proper capitalisation to the titles wherever you see one :D

So far I've corrected everybody here http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Marines and Rici has done some work on the Enies Lobby arc. 22:11, December 15, 2011 (UTC)

So "Marines" or "Marine" should always be capitalized? Or should it be just like the ranks since I had some encounters with "a Marine Vice Admiral" and I left only "a vice admiral" there, deleting the "Marine" part.

Also, every arc page, every history and personality section of every character that got into contact with a marine.

The Marines are already done with. The chapters and episode pages should be left alone for now with these things, when a major project is revived or someone completely edits pages and not just the parts with the Marine ranks.

Devil Fruits that belong to Marines should be checked.

The Marines page should be checked.

Styles and things that Marines use such as haki.

Battle of Marineford, Movies that include Marines.

It'd be such great help if you'd add here to a list or something the pages that have already these things taken care of. It'd be great to keep track of the progress.

I fixed the Marines page but forgot to mention it. 22:26, December 15, 2011 (UTC)

Pretty much done with the arc pages. Gonna move on to the Whitebeard Pirates and their allies 13:25, December 17, 2011 (UTC)
