– We should be using standard capitalisation per MOS:TM. In addition, there is another album called The Whole Shebang, so this should be fully disambiguated too. --woodensuperman 12:20, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose all, the capitalized version is in extremely common use such as their AllMusic profile, iTunes, Spotify, etc. Compare the bio for LoCash, which uses "LoCash" despite them often stylizing it in all-caps. Even the Joel Whitburn Record Research books use "SHeDAISY", which I think is the only other case besides k.d. lang where Whitburn deferred to non-standard capitalization. A newspapers.com search shows that the spelling "SHeDAISY" is used almost exclusively in newspaper articles, and here's another news article using "SHeDAISY". I'm finding almost exclusive use of "SHeDAISY" across the board, and almost no use of any other spelling variant, even in sources that do not normally defer to stylistic variants. This appears to be a pretty clear-cut case à la k.d. lang or CCH Pounder of a non-standard capitalization being preferred by a wide margin.

Ping @Martin4647: and @Caldorwards4: as a topic of interest. Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 19:03, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per the same criteria given above. Their name is stylized exclusively as SHeDAISY and is never anything but that, and k.d. lang is a great comparison. CloversMallRat (talk) 23:55, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
