Capitalization

Should the P in "factory pattern" really be capitalised? Design pattern (computer science), command pattern, interpreter pattern etc. are all lower case and I believe that those articles are correctly named with regards to Wikiedpia's naming guidelines.

No, it really should not be capitalised. Good eye! I will make the change as soon as I figure out how to do it. E James (talk) 15:39, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I added the Db-move template according to the instructions found in the requested moves article. The page was moved almost instantly. E James (talk) 16:21, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with Factory object

Seem to be about the same thing. – gpvos (talk) 16:49, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

What is it?

Article "beats around the bush" by discussing problems in creating objects, but never says precisely what Factory pattern is and how it solves those problems.
