Capitalization of "armor"

Hello, you recently edited the Armor page and moved individual armor set pages, upper-casing the word "armor" in each of the set names. The reason you provided was that the lower-cased names are "incorrect". After a user pointed out to you that this is against consensus and reverted your edits, you reverted his actions and once more upper-cased "armor", without reacting to his comment in an answer or your edit summaries – you again claimed the lower-cased names to be incorrect.

This behavior, reverting another user's reverts beyond the usual "be bold – revert – discuss" cycle, is called edit warring and is not allowed on the wiki. Continuation of an edit war will result in loss of editing privileges.

To elaborate on Dinoxel's comment: For more than eight years, there has been a consensus among the wiki editors that the word "armor" in armor set names is written in lower case. The reason for this is that armor set names are never mentioned as that in the game (just the individual pieces), and since we only ignore English grammar rules (including the general rule of lower-casing all nouns) if that conflicts with the in-game version (see here), "armor" needs to be lower-cased in those set names. Hence, lower-casing "armor" is the correct version, contrary to your claim.

For now, I have reverted all your edits. If you insist on upper-casing the word "armor", you are invited to create a discussion at the community noticeboard and eventually have the wiki editor community vote for or against your proposal. Please make sure to provide sufficient reasoning so others can understand your intentions, beyond a false claim of the lower case being incorrect. Editing any armor-related page to change "armor" in an armor set name to "Armor" again is considered a continuation of the edit war and will, as mentioned before, immediately result in a loss of your editing privileges.
