Do you not consider "Astronaut" to be a title? --[[User:TK|'''ṬK''']]<sub><small><small>/Admin</small></small></sub><sup>[[User_Talk:TK|/Talk]]</sup> 21:27, 17 July 2009 (EDT)

:Not really, sir--as I recall, most astronauts have a officer's military rank, which of course, would be capitalized, but I don't believe I've ever seen "astronaut" capitalized like, say, "Colonel" would be. Of course, I'm willing to concede the point to more experienced editors. [[User:StephenE|StephenE]] 14:36, 19 July 2009 (EDT)

::Titles, being proper Nouns, should be in upper case. Astronauts, plural usage, non specific would not be capitalized, however as part of a title, referring to a specific person, would be upper case. I checked with another Admin on this, and he agreed as well. So, it is yet another mixed use Noun....which is the case on the NASA and other websites, when I looked. So, let's just capitalize it when referencing a specific, okay? Thanks! --[[User:TK|'''ṬK''']]<sub><small><small>/Admin</small></small></sub><sup>[[User_Talk:TK|/Talk]]</sup> 15:35, 19 July 2009 (EDT)
