- List of American Physical Society Fellows (1921–1971) → List of fellows of the American Physical Society (1921–1971)
- List of American Physical Society Fellows (1972–1997) → List of fellows of the American Physical Society (1972–1997)

– Per MOS:JOBTITLES, MOS:CAPS, WP:TITLECAPS and for consistency. I have found 307 titles with "List of fellows of [something]", including the five titles resulting from the recent RM at Talk:List of fellows of the British Academy elected in the 2020s#Requested move 4 March 2024 and the title discussed in another recent RM at Talk:List of fellows of the Association for Computing Machinery#Requested move 3 March 2024. These are the only outliers I can find that use the form "List of [something] Fellows" instead of "List of fellows of [something]" for this sense of the word "fellows". The other cases seem to be people who received fellowships rather than people whose career distinguishes them as fellows of an organization. — BarrelProof (talk) 06:44, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
- Support all such jolly good fellows. Dicklyon (talk) 08:16, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
- The last one should be (2011–present) per MOS:TOPRESENT. Gonnym (talk) 07:23, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Yes. Dicklyon (talk) 11:12, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Agreed. — BarrelProof (talk) 23:05, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Support (but, yes, with the "present" fix mentioned above). Be WP:CONSISTENT with all other such articles (other than the few in another simultaneous RM). Rationales: MOS:JOBTITLES, MOS:HONORIFICS (depending on how you want to view these things, either as roles or as hono[u]rs), and MOS:CAPS/WP:NCCAPS. These things are typically capitalized when directly appended to someone's name (though more often abbreviated as postnominal acronmyms/intialisms), but when pluralized this way, or otherwise used as generic classifiers/categorizers, they are common-noun phrases by defintion, so not capitalized. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 10:29, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
