Capitalizing "department"
@
Maxwellwarner: I don't know where you got the guidance about "When referring to a specific department, the "D" should be capitalized", but you didn't get it from Wikipedia's MoS. Its MoS says (in
MOS:INSTITUTIONS)
Generic words for institutions, organizations, companies, etc., and rough descriptions of them (university, college, hospital, church, high school) do not take capitals:
Incorrect
(generic):
The University offers programs in arts and sciences.
Correct
(generic):
The university offers programs in arts and sciences.
Correct
(title):
The University of Delhi offers programs in arts and sciences.
Even when "The university offers programs in arts and sciences." appears in an article about a specific university and refers to that specific university, we don't use a capital "U". Please restore the changes that I made. You might also want to fix "The bottom half served as the Fire Department ..." – no different than "the high school".
