Given how the writing system has a different name in North and South Korea, wouldn't it be better to use the neutral term "Korean alphabet"? Marmartoo ( talk) 05:18, 29 March 2024 (UTC)

I don’t really like the current example (꿀벌) of the correct way to write Hangul. I think we should change it either to 조선글 or the word for either “line” or the first person singular pronoun, both of which are only one syllable. 2601:C6:D200:E9B0:95D5:228D:3A88:24BC ( talk) 16:41, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
As title. Currently "Hangul" seems to be capitalized throughout this article. Is this "preferred" practice for this and other articles?
I guess it's possible that either capitalization is fine and that intra-article consistency is what matters, but considering that this article sets an implicit standard for how we capitalize "hangul" in other articles, I think it'd be nice to establish a consensus here about what's "better".
Some relevant Wikipedia pages:
Wikipedia relies on sources to determine what is conventionally capitalized; only words and phrases that are consistently capitalized in a substantial majority of independent, reliable sources are capitalized in Wikipedia.
A poll of dictionaries:
Other evidence:
Not a reliable source, but Wiktionary seems to consider wiktionary:Hangeul to be canonical.
Does anyone know how the linguistics literature capitalizes it? So far common capitalization practice seems unclear to me. 104.232.119.107 ( talk) 04:51, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
