Why is the "The" in "Bring Me The Horizon" lowercase?[edit]

Everywhere I look at official artist pages (YouTube, Spotify and even their official website), the band is referred to as "Bring Me The Horizon" yet on Wikipedia it is "Bring Me the Horizon" with the third word being lowercase. What is the origin of this and why does Wikipedia differ from other sources? 2001:1C01:39D4:E000:B118:E7F4:BA89:9192 (talk) 10:08, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There is a rule in English to not capitalize the articles in titles, unless it is particularly important stylistically.

Question about this - should 'The' be capitalised everywhere else in the article? Again as original topic mentioned, it is stylised as Bring Me The Horizon officially (^∙w∙^)/ Gale + talk 08:39, 27 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
MOS:THEMUSIC says that the definite article should always be uncapitalised in names, even if its mid sentence. Issan Sumisu (talk) 08:48, 27 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That makes sense but my main concern/question about this is that the MoS is referring to leading 'the's whereas the 'the' in BMTH is in the middle and in my opinion looks a bit more awkward uncapitalised (^∙w∙^)/ Gale + talk 10:59, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That policy is on leading articles because those are controversial. Whereas, having the definite article decapilisted mid-title is just commonplace in English grammar, it doesn't need a policy because that grammar rule is just generally known. Issan Sumisu (talk) 11:45, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 29 April 2023[edit]

In the infobox, remove South Yorkshire from the infobox and keep it as just Sheffield, England because Bring Me the Horizon formed in a city and not anything smaller than that, like a town or a village. 2601:407:4181:4260:1167:86C6:61DE:7C4D (talk) 12:23, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Lightoil (talk) 00:56, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Why do I need to provide reliable sources in order for South Yorkshire to be removed from the infobox? Bands don't have anything bigger than an entire county next to a city in the United Kingdom. The only thing that should be listed along with just a city in the United Kingdom is the constituent country. This change isn't so big, so why is it so hard to accept? 2601:407:4181:4260:1167:86C6:61DE:7C4D (talk) 01:54, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Done They are right, you don't need a source for this. Look at other bands from Sheffield: Arctic Monkeys and Def Leppard. It just says Sheffield, England. I removed South Yorkshire from BMTH's article. Bowling is life (talk) 02:18, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 23 September 2023[edit]

Add nu metal to the genre box as in the past couple of years, they have written a substantial amount of nu metal material. Marsupi4lpng (talk) 07:06, 23 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: I see what you mean but there are six genres listed in the infobox already. We do not need more. Plus, nu metal is a subgenre of alternative metal which is included in the infobox. Atleast nu metal is included in the artistry section of the article along with a huge list of genres that are not included in the infobox. Since BMTH change their sound a lot, many genres are not going to be included in the infobox. We have to keep it general and only list the genres they are most often described as.

Origin is listed as Sheffield, West Yorkshire. This should be South Yorkshire not West Yorkshire. If in doubt, check Sheffield on a map Wazzdog33 (talk) 16:07, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 6 January 2024[edit]

Please add Bring Me the Horizon's latest album to their Studio Albums list, including a link to the Wiki page for the album. The album is titled "Post Human: Survival Horror" It was released on October 30, 2020. The link to the Wiki page for the album is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post_Human:_Survival_Horror

I would do it myself, but my Wiki account is too new to add content to semi-protected pages.

Thank you! Cadlane (talk) 05:31, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Done Typically, discography sections are for studio albums only. Post Human: Survival Horror is not a studio album but it is a major release and should be mentioned as an exception. I can't guarantee it will stay and this may need more discussion, but I decided to be be bold.
