The result of the move request was: Moved to Fuzzy duck per Station1. As Lord Belbury pointed out, MOS:GAMECAPS calls for lowercase, and Station1 has demonstrated a strong case for the game being the primary topic, the competitors being a short-lived 1970s band and their only album. I'm unsure what to do with dab page Fuzzy Duck, but perhaps best to leave it where it is for the time being per WP:SMALLDETAILS. No such user (talk) 14:18, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@BarrelProof: Certainly where the game is a brand name it would be capitalized. But there's no more reason to capitalize the name of a game such as fuzzy duck than, say, chess, air hockey, Texas hold 'em, or pin the tail on the donkey. This article is a good summary of what the standard practice is with respect to the capitalization of games. This position is reaffirmed by New Hart's Rules (see p. 137 of the 2014 edition) and I can't find anything to the contrary in any major style guide or dictionary. 207.161.86.162 (talk) 22:26, 2 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
And capitalized or not, it's a primary topic. Station1 (talk) 06:18, 3 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support per MOS:GAMECAPS: "Sports, games, and other activities that are not trademarked or copyrighted are not capitalized." --Lord Belbury (talk) 14:44, 3 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
