Capitalization of terms describing race

Sorry if I am out of line placing this here, but thought I'd leave this here. I just left this comment on User:The Transhumanist: I wanted to comment on a previous discussion regarding capitalizing "Black" in the article, List of black Academy Award winners and nominees. It's just as well that I start anew... Is it not correct to capilaize peoples' race? In one of your examples, you yourself use (correctly) "Native Americans." In this article title, of course "Black Academy Award..." was not referring to a proper name of an award. "Black" is not an adjective modifying "Academy Award," but rather, "Academy Award winners and nominees." It is identifying, by race, who is on the list. It is not "an adjective like any other." It is a proper name, "Black," when used here, like "Caucasian." Unless he just took a bath in black paint, no, a Black man is not a black man, but he is and always will be a Black man. From what I have been taught, and have been able to gather before writing this, race is a proper name, and should be capitalized. (it's not specified at Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Capital letters but I did get this confirmed on the Chicago Manual of Style online guide Chicago Manual of Style Online.TienTao 21:23, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi. You posted the above on my Talk Page. Thanks. I am sorry that I was not able to reply sooner. You also posted the above on the Talk Page for a user named The TransHumanist. I was (sort of) waiting to see her reply, but as of yet, there has been no reply from her. In any event, I posted this very question on the Wikipedia Help Page that deals with Language. You can see here: Wikipedia:Reference desk/Language under the June 15 entry entitled "Question about capitalization." Perhaps you might be interested in that conversation on that Help Desk page. Ultimately, I guess that whether or not to capitalize "Black" (race) is merely a matter of style and preference. But it seems that capitalized is better than not. Thanks again.

"Best" in Academy Awards categories

Hello, Thanks for your comments. However, it should be noted that the Academy itself defines their awards categories. Regarding category names, "Best Picture" is the correct name of that award, and it is the only Academy Award with "Best" in the name. Go to official AMPAS sources and you will see this is consistant. Most of the general public (all, I would say), think and use "Best" for everything, which is incorrect. Of course, we could get picky and say the full name should be "Academy Award of Merit for Outstanding Achievement in..." While I don't think that's necessary, I do think all the incorrect wiki use of "Best" regarding Academy Awards should be struck. The problem is, as I said, the public thinks this is correct, and would likely get all irate and revert it back. TienTao 19:47, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you are correct. Coincidentally, I had recently been in contact with AMPAS about this very issue. They had informed me that the word "Best" is not officially part of the award titles (e.g., the award is for "Actor" and not "Best Actor", etc.). As you pointed out, the exception is "Best Picture." Thanks! (JosephASpadaro 23:27, 21 June 2007 (UTC))[reply]

Block message:

Wikipedia's technical logs indicate that this IP address or network has been used to disrupt Wikipedia. It has been blocked from editing to prevent further abuse.
If you are not the intended target of this block, please read the information below in order to receive assistance.
Wikipedia tries to be open, but we sometimes must block IP addresses to prevent editing by abusers, vandals, or block evaders. These blocks can affect users who have done nothing wrong. If you are a legitimate user, follow the instructions below to edit despite the block. Users who are the intended target of a range block may still appeal the block.

IP users (without an account): If you do not have an account and wish to bypass this block, an account can be created to allow you to edit. In general, these blocks only prevent users who are not logged in from editing; once you are logged in, the block will no longer affect you in any way. To request an account, simply click here and follow the directions provided on the page. It is important that you use an e-mail address issued to you by your ISP, school, or organisation, so we may verify that you are a legitimate user. When filling out the account request form, please refer to this block in the "comments" input field. If you've been instructed to request an account via email, please refer to this block in your message.

Decline reason: It is very likely you have not been personally blocked. Unfortunately, we are unable to unblock you because you have been caught in a

rangeblock. These are applied to stop persistent vandals from using multiple IP addresses to evade their block. For our security, we cannot release this block early unless there is clear evidence of severe collateral damage. You can, however, log in to edit. If you don't have an account, you can email us to request an account. Click here
and let us know what username you would like to use, making sure to add a link to this page for our reference. Sorry for the inconvenience, but please let us know if you have any questions.

A minority of rangeblocks are "hard blocked" and prohibit editing even if logged in, due to exceptional vandalism or other similar issues.
