I've added individual ship profiles with the ''exact same'' spelling as BC used - which may include spelling errors or, more frequently, odd capitalisations. Now I'm torn - should the article use the "correct" spelling/format, or should we stick to the exact same format as BC including obvious errors?

Spelling

I've added individual ship profiles with the exact same spelling as BC used - which may include spelling errors or, more frequently, odd capitalisations. Now I'm torn - should the article use the "correct" spelling/format, or should we stick to the exact same format as BC including obvious errors? Frabby (talk) 14:04, 4 October 2012 (PDT)

I think we should use the proper spelling of ship names and state prefixes (which is why I changed them). In every other source I've seen from CGL, the state abbreviations are always capitalized. To me that means that the PDF's were released with an error that would be corrected in an Errata document. So by using the correct capitalization and spelling, we're actually doing the right thing.--Mbear(talk) 05:19, 5 October 2012 (PDT)
