Italic usage

[edit]

Shouldn't this article be titled "The New York Times Games" (NYT in italics)? If not, please indicate the MOS section that spells this out (as at first glance, MOS:ITALIC doesn't readily lead to an answer the question). [NB: We should also try to be consistent across the suite of NYT games articles (please see Talk:New York Times crossword puzzle#Title).] -- Cl3phact0 (talk) 18:30, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The core question here might be: is the Games section part of The New York Times (the publication, italicized) or The New York Times Company (the company that owns it, not italicized)? BanjoZebra (talk) 18:54, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed. The same question might be asked of the individual articles about each game. I prefer NYT in italics, name of game capitalised but not italic (per: The New York Times Connections; The New York Times Spelling Bee; and The New York Times Crossword). I'm not going to the mat for either, but I would like to see us being consistent across the entire group. -- Cl3phact0 (talk) 17:40, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
For what it's worth, based on the formatting on the other articles (which shouldn't be used), "Crossword", "Spelling Bee", "Connections", and "Strands" are not italicized, while "Wordle" and "Letter Boxed" are. This article and the NYTimes navbox italicizes all game names (outside of Sudoku). - Favre1fan93 (talk) 00:08, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's worth a lot if you can say which is correct. If so, that's the formatting that should be used on the lot. (I would think that "Wordle" and "Letter Boxed" would not be italicized.) -- Cl3phact0 (talk) 21:06, 27 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
