Here Technologies → HERE Technologies – HERE Technologies is always capitalizing the word "HERE".

Opoose to justify such a move we would need evidence that the vast majority of reliable independent sources use the proposed spelling and so far that hasn’t happned.--70.27.244.104 (talk) 00:27, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Here Technologies → HERE Technologies – Per WP:CAPS, HERE Technologies is always capitalizing the word "HERE". See the HERE website: https://www.here.com/company/about 110.138.72.62 (talk) 06:34, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This does seem to be done by independent sources though the logo uses all lower case. Crouch, Swale (talk) 08:34, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merger discussion[edit]

Requesting a consensus on merging Traffic.com into this article. Here is Traffic.com's successor after Nokia acquired its former parent, Navteq; typically in these situations there aren't separate articles. The Traffic.com article is also quite dated and lacks citations, and any notable history should be integrated into the Here Technologies article. MikeM2011 (talk) 19:23, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - @GenQuest - was there a consensus to merge Traffic.com into Navteq instead? I didn't see any unless I'm looking in the wrong place. MikeM2011 (talk) 03:31, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- No, MikeM2011, didn't think it was necessary for that whole process. The corporate acquisition of Traffic.com was by Navteq, not HERE. The renaming to HERE was a rebranding, not a merger. Since the Traffic article was small, half fluff/clutter, generally uncited, and easy to clear from the queue, I jumped on it. Of course, you can reverse if you feel my reasoning is wrong.
