:::::::So, you complain when fragments don't get periods, but you won't complain when the Categories' titles aren't capitalized? The categories' names are just titles of the pages, and titles should be capitalized at all times... and we really don't want to have Bulbapedia written like a bunch of four year olds, because only people so young wouldn't understand the laws of the English language. And, it takes less time to put the e instead of the é in Pokémon, but that doesn't mean we should go around not putting in the é just because "it takes less time to type." Good things take time, and having the categories capitalized is a good thing. Holding down the shift key barely takes any time at all, so please capitalize titles of categories.

The period and é things are different. Pokémon is officially spelled with an é, not an e, which is why we type it like that. It's proper for summaries on images to always have periods at the end. However, categories are different. You only see the coding the edit box, and regardless of the capitalization in the edit box, the first letter of every category will always be capitalized when someone is looking at the image categories somewhere other than the edit box. <sup>[[user:chocolate|<span style="color:#6D351A;">Cho</span>]][[user talk:chocolate|<span style="color:#6D351A;">col</span>]][[special:contributions/chocolate|<span style="color:#6D351A;">ate</span>]]</sup> 02:18, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
