WP is not written in news style as a matter of policy. How many sources are using "Like" is irrelevant in a four-letter preposition case when 99.9% of them are news, since news style follows the four-letter rule (i.e., virtually never news publisher will render it "Like" in every title of everything, no matter what). Going over this, all of the rationales are invalid. Anyway, next time lead with WP:CONSISTENCY as well as MOS:TITLECAPS. I.e., they are WP:GAMING the system with WP:IDHT and WP:FORUMSHOP: just keep recycling the same consensus-rejected idea over and over again until you get lucky and a random closer who isn't looking very closely buys into it. What I note above is that various editors have showed up to recycle the same arguments that were refuted in previous RMs. This is something we've been over many, many times at RM, and with a consistent lower-case result.

Yes, this should be re-RMed, since it directly conflicts with every other "like as a preposition" case.

I'm shocked by the overwhelming consensus for the opposite in the above discussion when the MoS is very clear about this and clear-cut examples like Someone like You (Adele song) exist.- N Ø 21:10, 10 October 2018 (UTC)

I would also agree that the 'like' should be lowercase.

iTunes capitalizes "like," but it's grammatically incorrect.

I agree that "like" should be lowercase.

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. OK this looks like a lost cause but the MOS is quite clear on this. I'm not sure it's worth changing one of these without discussing the hundreds of other capitalized instances of "Like" in article titles, and I'm pretty sure discussing the hundreds together wouldn't lead to a consensus to change the titles either. For example, there's the extensive evidence of Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Capital letters/Archive 21. The MOS is clear on this point, and most of the opposes here don't have much grounding, but it hasn't been clear for years whether the MOS really represents community consensus on this word in particular.

Oppose - AFAIK, four letter prepositions should be capitalized.

all three letters are capitalized and should be the same with the title of the article. See also A Girl like Me (Rihanna album), Someone like Me, Moves like Jagger. Wikipedia's style guide must be applied consequently to achieve and maintain internal consistency. How sources capitalize this title is irrelevant. Indeed the lyrics make clear that like is used as a preposition here, so it should be lowercased as per Wikipedia's style guide ( MOS:CT). I think this is a case like Star Trek Into Darkness, where our general rules on not capitalizing 4-word prepositions should be ignored.

Oppose, most of the sources use the current capitalization.

Looking at the lyrics, it's clear that this song is using meaning (2), and as such, per MOS:TITLECAPS, the "like" should have not be capitalised as it is a preposition with fewer than five letters.

Girls Like You → Girls like You – There are two possible meanings of the phrase "girls like you" - (1) "like" is a verb, and it is someone telling another person that girls like them and (2) "like" is a preposition, and is the phrase is part of a larger sentence in which someone tells a girl what girls like her are prone to do. ( closed by non-admin page mover) - Cameron 11598 (Talk) 01:16, 20 June 2018 (UTC) Perhaps this is a discussion to have at WT:MOS. Their point that if the issue as a whole was brought to the community that there would likely be no consensus is well taken. While the MOS is indeed clear on this as Dekimasu points out it isn't clear if it has community consensus.

consensus appears to be that the title shouldn't be moved. The result of the move request was: Not moved. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. The following is a closed discussion of a requested move.
