Article Title
It's actually officially Life is Strange: Before the Storm, with a non-capitalized I. Please someone correct that. You can check it on the official website for the game. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Meyerliane (talk • contribs) 20:39, 25 August 2017 (UTC)
- I don't think there is a way where you can edit an article's main title. If there is, I wouldn't know how to do it. Maybe someone else could help. But yes, you are right, 'Is' in the game's title does not have a capitalized I. - Lwilsher02 12:30, 26 August 2017 (UTC)
- So I have found out how to move the page. Would we need to though? Lwilsher02 17:58, 10 October 2017 (UTC)
- "Is" with a capital I is grammatically correct. Verbs (in this case, Is = "to be") are capitalised in titles. Cognissonance (talk) 13:25, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
- You are right that according to convention it should be capitalized, but since it's the title of a work of entertainment I think creative liberty takes over. Interestingly, the first game has the capitalization right within the game but is very inconsistent about its use in storefronts and social media. I'm not even sure the publisher is aware of this. 81.82.196.81 (talk) 10:38, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
- The title is inconsistent. Some stores have it with lowercase 'is', some with uppercase. The end credits display the title as Life Is Strange. However, I believe the trademark is considered official, and that's all caps. Wikipedia asks to use capitalization convention even when a non-standard use is considered official, so regardless, the 'is' has to remain capitalized. Fredvdp (talk) 17:00, 23 April 2018 (UTC)

Photo Uploading
I want to upload a picture featuring the deluxe edition of L.I.S: Before the Storm Deluxe Edition but I am worried about copyright claims. What should I do? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lwilsher02 (talk • contribs) 18:21, 23 June 2017 (UTC)
- @Lwilsher02: So, unless the picture is free (meaning the creator of the picture released it under a free license), it needs to significantly contribute to the reader's understanding of the topic. For most game articles, this means that in addition to any free images (such as photos of dev team members), we can just include one picture of the standard cover art and one screenshot of typical gameplay. Unless the look of the the deluxe edition has been discussed a lot by reliable sources, I do not think it would warrant the addition of a new non-free image.--IDVtalk 20:40, 23 June 2017 (UTC)
