Army training regiment → Army Training Regiments – Capitalise as Army Training Regiment is a proper noun and capitalised by the British Army as it is an official name of a place and unit "Army Training Regiment Grantham" etc and Regiments as there is more than one. It is not just an Army training regiment, it is The Army Training Regiment Grantham/Winchester. If that makes sense. Similar to how the Parachute Regiment is capitalised and not the Parachute regiment. It's a proper noun. https://www.army.mod.uk/who-we-are/our-schools-and-colleges/atr-winchester/ CptJohnMiller (talk) 15:45, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. We don’t capitalize names of articles about a type of military unit, because that is not a proper name. Army Training Regiment Grantham is the proper name of one of the army training regiments, just like Carrier Air Wing One is one of the carrier air wings.  —Michael Z. 19:33, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
In this case it looks like the specific organization that these army training regiments, units, centres, and other schools belong to is the Initial Training Group.  —Michael Z. 19:37, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
What on earth are you talking about lol? This is an article about Army Training Regiments , the proper names, - Army Training Regiments Grantham, Winchester, and 1 and 2 Army Training Regiments based at Pirbright.. If this was an article about the Army's training regiments, it would include 11 Signal Regiment, 25 Training Regiment RLC, etc as these are Army training regiments. Respectfully, you're extremely incorrect CptJohnMiller (talk) 21:43, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose: Not a proper name. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 00:55, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Not a proper name and no need for pluralisation. The Army Training Regiment Grantham is a proper name. An army training regiment is not. The British Army capitalises almost everything, as do many other organisations. This is not a good reason for us to follow suit. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:14, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
