Because by the latter judgement, Danish should also use English Title Case.

I suppose I could write to Foras na Gaeilge or similar and ask for opinions.

I think getting word from the official instance would be the best thing to do here.

Yeah, you're right.

And then make a proper capitalisation guideline RFC.

Though it makes a certain sort of sense that official standards would follow English standards.

For what it's worth, the FnaG site seems to favor English-style titlecase, and state organizations use titlecase. Not sure whether that's different in countries which use sentence case.
You can officially use either Sentence case or Title Case for Danish (work) titles.

Alright, I sent off an email to Foras na Gaeilge.
2013-01-31 03101, 2013
Leftmost
For now, I would use titlecase, as that's what I've been using and seen used on MB. Can always bookmark it and come back to it later when I get my response.

I warn you, it could be a while. My experience with the Irish is that emails are not responded to quickly.

Leftmost: And I've been using and seeing sentence case for Irish. So I'll stick to that. ;) English is the only language I've seen Title Case used for.

Where have you seen sentence case for Irish?

Oh, gee. It's been ages since I regularly edited trad. stuff.

I guess by "style" you mean the comment preceding the tests.

And separating them, yes

I "introduced" that with the tests for the The Session URLs.

Separating them?

Well, they're not more separated now than they were before.

It's just the comment added. :)

But yes, that comment does make it all a bit more readable, IMHO.
2013-01-31 03135, 2013

Which is why I added it in the first place. :p

Well, if all had comments, they'd all be separated from each other by a comment!

(And yes git/hub is pretty awesome to work with when you're multiple people (actually, also even when you're just yourself). But sometimes you need to try some of the more advanced stuff to get a taste for it. :))

All disparate parts of a sort name should be separated by ", " (comma and space).
2013-01-31 03132, 2013

derr84: In that regard, I'd say the "'s" is part of the initial name section of the complete name.

derr84: So "([name]'s) and (Bad Haunted Wailers, The)"

someone should just send a proposal to copy the attributes to the medley relationship. the proposal to merge them doesn't seem to be going anywhere :P
