BRD - @Krimuk2.0 - yes, MOS:TMSTYLE calls out that stylization may include simple styling, like capitalization changes - Netflix specifically uses the stylization not just in logo, but also in text - refer to KAOS - Netflix and many RS reporting on the show with the same stylization ([1], [2], [3] just to pull up a few), not as just "Kaos", so per our guidelines.
So while all caps is not elaborate, it was done so very intentionally clearly and should thusly be mentioned. Raladic (talk) 06:31, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"Capitalisation changes" doesn't refer to "all caps". Many films and series have their title cards in all bolds or all caps, such as Joker, which I mentioned in my edit-summary. Doesn't mean we should spoon-feed that to our readers. Krimuk2.0 (talk) 06:35, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nope - since you mentioned Joker - actually that one might be a case where it was just a logo use as TMSTYLE calls out (and so, not a stylization), as the official text use, such as in the Official Trailer by the Studio in the text description below uses “Joker” and “Joker: Folie À Deux”, so that's a case where it was not a stylization.

The above post is correct per TMSTYLE, and the styling extends past just the title card, as suggested, but is supported by a variety of secondary sources. -- Alex_21TALK06:39, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That does not mean that it is not stylized; Kaos is the traditional title, KAOS is the stylized title, and both are used. TMSTYLE refers to stylization as the use of alternating capitalization; this conforms with that, and is supported elsewhere. -- Alex_21TALK06:45, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Whichever interview seems official enough, worth noting the creator's own plan was to glide things away from a straight cliffhanger in case things weren't renewed but that ideally his setup was for a three season arc. — LlywelynII12:14, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
