Weather box
When we put the record high in climate data, are we using monthly averages or a specific day high? — Preceding unsigned comment added by RES2773 (talk • contribs) 21:43, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
- When you are filling in the record high in the climate data, you are using the highest temperature ever recorded in that month, not the monthly averages. For example if the highest temperature recorded in January was 14.0 °C (57.2 °F) on the 21st, then you put 14.0 in the parameter "|Jan record high C=14.0" in the weather box. It doesn't matter which day the highest temperature was recorded at. Monthly averages are never used for the record high (that's incorrect). The same can be said for the record low. For all the others, (average high, precipitation, snowfall, sunshine), you use the monthly averages. Look at the weather boxes in Canada, USA or Australia (their climate data is much more detailed than other countries) and it should be clear that they use the highest temperatures ever recorded in that month. Hope that helps answer your question. Ssbbplayer (talk) 18:08, 26 September 2015 (UTC)

Capitalization of "flood" in titles
- There has been an on-going controversy on the capitalization of words in a title that normally are not capitalized. With few exceptions the word flood is not capitalized throughout Wikipedia as evidenced at [[Category:Floods]] and [[Category:Floods in the United States]]. [[Category:Floods in Canada]] list 19 like named titles (flood used in the title not as a first word or proper noun) and of these 6 capitalize "flood".
- Wikipedia policy:
- Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Titles#Capitalization states, "However, for names of Wikipedia articles and of section headings in articles and pages, generally only the first word and all proper names are capitalized in titles.". Wikipedia:Article titles#Article title format states, "Use lowercase, except for proper names". This supposedly narrows the criteria to determining if a word is part of such a "proper noun" or named as such as provided by reliable sources as the common name.
- I am always a proponent of using the common name when possible (exceptions for avoiding ambiguity) otherwise policy and title consistency should be followed. Otr500 (talk) 13:00, 1 November 2015 (UTC)
