shouldn't the Map for the table be an old map from around its capture? this map is fitting of the second battle when it was lost/liberated but says almost nothing about how it ended up in Russian hands. AnAustralianHistoryBuff (talk) 05:48, 7 October 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
– Per WP:NCCAPS and MOS:CAPS, we use sentence case in article titles and only capitalise words after the first if they are consistently capitalised in a substantial majority of independent reliable sources. Sources cited for both articles are substantially news sources. In Google searches of news sources for First Battle of Lyman, Second Battle of Lyman and Battle of Lyman, there are almost no such sources for the search terms, let alone such sources that capitalise battle. These are descriptive names that do not rise to the threshold set in WP:P&G requiring capitalisation.

Oppose per standard titling for battles. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:54, 29 August 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
If there is a specific guideline about battle capitalization, please do link to it. Absent that, I support these moves. I'll gladly review any linked guidelines and reconsider. ~TPW 14:35, 30 August 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
