Name
Unsurprisingly, sources are inconsistent in the naming of this piece. There are three, four, five leading dots, and a combination of ellipsis and dots. I suggest to apply Wikipedia house rules and move this article to ... sofferte onde serene ... -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 01:25, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Support per MOS:ELLIPSIS. (Are the spaces necessary or desirable, though?) 2600:8800:1880:9A3:5604:A6FF:FE38:4B26 (talk) 07:22, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Support. Nine, eleven, or forty-two leading "dots" still just constitute an ellipsis. I do wish Wikipedia would recognize the difference between suspension points and ellipses, though. Everybody else seems to understand the distinction. Oh, and what spaces are we talking about? The ones between the eleventh and twelfth leading dots, or the ones between the seventh and eighth ones?—Jerome Kohl (talk) 07:29, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Oppose. Nono did not specify what he meant by using five leading dots. The inconsistencies in the sources used are probably due to the fact that some of them may have replaced the five dots with an ellipsis. If Nono wanted to use an ellipsis, why would he use five points followed by a space, knowing that that would cause trouble? Until an explanation for this is provided, I would keep the title as it is. In the case of using the title proposed by Michael Bednarek, I don't see why we should not delete the spaces as well. Ron Oliver (talk) 15:24, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
