Talk:Xkcd

Should the page titled "Xkcd" be moved to "XKCD", to change how the title is displayed to the user across Wikipedia and more? While the article itself uses the WP:DISPLAYTITLE magic word to display "xkcd" all-lowercase, other places, including Wikipedia categories and Wikipedia search results, currently show the capitalization "Xkcd", which is much less common than "XKCD". This proposal concerns at least five different policy and technical pages, yet none seem to resolve the dispute. 17:32, 2 April 2025 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Newspapers/Notability

Can we adopt re-classify this informal essay on notability of newspapers as a formal Wikipedia:Guideline?

Wikipedia:WikiProject Newspapers/Notability→ Wikipedia:Notability (newspapers)

Having a guideline for notability of newspapers addresses the challenge of supporting recent increased interest in developing Wikipedia's relationship with fact-checking, journalism, reliable media, and newspapers in particular.

One existing closely related guideline is for books. Here is that, and several comparable essays for media.
