PLOS ONE

Hi. I'm sorry I reverted your changes here. They had caused some problems in the article, breaking links to graphics, other-language wikis etc. Further, I think you'd need to check that you were not changing it in references that already existed. What you probably need to do is to take it to the article's Talk page and discuss it there. The capitalization of this name is, as you will see there, already a sensitive subject so it would probably benefit from discussion before action. If you are right about the title, then the article should perhaps be moved and that would also need discussing. Hope this helps, best wishes, DBaK (talk) 20:17, 6 August 2012 (UTC)

Hi. Thanks for the note - no, that's fine to contact me. I think the best way forward will be for you to take it to the article's Talk page. If you set your stall out there as you did to me then I am sure you will get help. Telling people your role in the organization is massively helpful and they will love you for it - it defuses the whole issue of potential COI by having it out in the open. Then if you give refs for the change, people can see and understand that (if they don't already know!) and will be more inclined to reach a helpful consensus. You do need, I think, to try to get the page moved to PLOS ONE and I think you should propose that on the Talk page. This will obviously reignite the debate about capitalization but I would guess that logic is on your side - they already decided that they liked PLoS ONE and the same arguments, it seems to me, would apply to the new version. Certainly it would seem very illogical to leave it where it now is as that will now just be wrong both ways. You might get some wanting it to go to PLOS One or PLOS one or something - you will have seen that there is a sensitivity about nonstandard capitalization, and the argument "but that is what we call it!" is not absolutely bound to succeed, though I suspect that in this case, handled gently, it will. I'm not an article-naming expert, but I feel sure that you will encounter some soon ... :) Wikipedia is definitely a place where you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar so I'd resist any urge to tell people what they must do as it may rub some up the wrong way! Good luck with it; I will keep a look out and see what happens. cheers DBaK (talk) 21:16, 6 August 2012 (UTC)

PS You might want to consider putting something on your user page, and perhaps including mention of your role at PLOS ONE. Not compulsory, but possibly useful. Cheers! DBaK (talk) 21:18, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
