## Unification Stuff

| Term | Proper form | Rationale |
|--|--|--|
|  /dai/ | Lowercase, unless it's "obviously" the ticker, as in ratios (MKR/DAI)| Currencies are not capitalized. Capitalizing dai is something of a gimmick |
| /mkr/ | All-caps | MKR cannot be uttered as a word (unless expanded into "maker", which almost no one does). All-caps fits better with this usage
| /keeper(s)/ | Lowercase | Mostly used in plural, impersonal, countless --- more of a mechanism than of an entity, closer to burning than to Facilitator |
| Auctions | Lowercase | See above |
| /vault(s)/ | Lowercase | See above |
| Parameters | Capitalized when scope = system; else, lowercase | Uniqueness |
| Governance Cycles | Lowercase, unless attached to a month: _monthly governance cycle_, but _January Governance Cycle_ | Probably only becomes enough of an entity when actualized :shrug: |
| /core unit(s)/ | Possibly same as above: lowercase unless attached to a core unit name | See above, I guess |
| /facilitator(s)/ | Facilitator | Personal title |
| /budget/ | | |
| /governance/ | Lowercase | Pretty loaded term. Unsure what to do when used as a collective noun, but inclined towards lowercase there too |
| /on-/off-chain/ | Lowercase | Most extended form. Not exclusive to MakerDAO |

- <https://manual.makerdao.com/governance/governance-cycle>
    - "Here are the articles for this section:" is pretty bad, I think. Maybe "MakerDAO has two overlapping governance cycles..." etc?
    - Generally, I think the article boxes and the previous/next boxes could use some more conspicuous differentiation: ![](https://i.imgur.com/FHw2uxU.png) Maybe \<hr> is enough?
