Talk:WWE Raw debut episode on Netflix
Page rename
editCan we please rename this article to "RAW Premiere on Netflix"? Whilst we will have to wait a little to see how it is listed on Netflix, this is the way that WWE, Triple H and others have been calling the special. It is also listed this way on the WWE tickets page; https://www.wwe.com/event/raw-premiere-on-netflix. Propork3455 (talk) 13:25, 25 December 2024 (UTC)

WWE Raw debut episode on Netflix → WWE RAW Premiere on Netflix – As listed above, this is currently the most credible name for the event. It is the name used by some WWE staff, as well as the name used on the WWE tickets site. Propork3455 (talk) 20:07, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
- Lowercase "premier"? — BarrelProof (talk) 22:51, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
- Lowercase "premier" Raw hits in a search of google news are about 17,300 for premier v 13,200 for debut episode, so the proposed title is more common per WP:AT. It is also more concise. However sources lowercase premiere in prose (WP:NCCAPS and MOS:CAPS). Cinderella157 (talk) 02:37, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
- I understand where you're coming from and I'm not against making that change. I just went by how the event's name was stylised, however, I wasn't able to find anything in WP:NCCAPS that relates to names of events. There was something I was able to find about naming of sports events, but was more niche than sports in general (MOS:CUE#). The only thing that stood out was:
- "Articles on competitions and other events should:
- Use the official name to the extent possible"
- Again, I would rather go by the stylisation that the WWE uses, but if WP doesn't generally stick to event naming in the same way, premiere can be made lowercase. Propork3455 (talk) 18:23, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
- WP:NCCAPS is invoked by WP:AT and in turn, invokes MOS:CAPS. WWE is not an independent source. We don't rely on how it is capped by the WWE. To cap here, the term should be consistently capped in sources. It isn't. Cinderella157 (talk) 00:27, 30 December 2024 (UTC)
- I support this change, especially as that is what WWE themselves are promoting the event as. --Zippo9310 (talk) 02:00, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
- Support WWE have referred to this episode as the "Premiere" for the event listing, and have used it in plenty of articles for the lead up. Some examples here, here, and here. --Mechanical Elephant (talk) 18:28, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
