Move to lower case

[edit]

None of the cited external links supported the interpretation as a proper noun (it only appeared in a heading in one, and camel case in the other), and I found and cited a book that had it in lower case, so the title is lower case now. Dicklyon (talk) 05:33, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

From the looks of the sources, it questionable whether there's even a notable topic here. If there is, it might better by called "the match rating approach used by Western Airlines" or "the Western Airlines match rating approach" as the sources do. It's just one approach to rating matches. Dicklyon (talk) 06:06, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. I don't think this article should stay at such a generic name if it's going to be spelled in lower case. —Ruud 12:12, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I also agree. Match rating (Western Airlines)? Do we need "approach"? (Ah, I'm not sure). I see what Dick is getting at: a lot of fuss over nothing of much general interest; or if it is, why not integrate it into a larger article of more meaningful (broader) scope ... perhaps there's a class of algorithms?

I think "match rating approach" here is used in the same sense as "algorithm" is used in "Knuth–Morris–Pratt algorithm". We wouldn't want to put that at "Algorithm (Knuth–Morris–Pratt)". I don't have a better alternative either, though. Perhaps "Western Airlines match rating" or "Western Airlines match rating approach"?—Ruud 12:33, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
