Capitalization

[edit]

Since personal ordinariate, military ordinariate, diocese, eparchy, ecclesiastical province, personal prelature are not capitalized in Wikipedia, and perhaps above all because some editors say this is required by WP:MOSCAPS, there is, I submit, no reason to change "ordinariate for the faithful of eastern rite" to "Ordinariate for the Faithful of Eastern Rite".

Before we can really discuss this, I'd like to see some examples of where the term is used. I can't seem to find any. - Biruitorul Talk 20:29, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
So indeed would I. But I doubt if there is any settled English terminology, especially since there are only eight of them, some with very few Catholics and none located in an English-speaking country. Sources do speak about some individual ordinariate or other, capitalizing its name, but any that speak about them in the plural must be extremely rare.
