Capitalization in character "titles"

Starting with the Tormented Levy I noticed there's some inconsistency in capitalizing character titles, such as Levy.

  • On some pages the Tormented Levy is spelled tormented levy, on some tormented Levy.
  • The Levy, too, sometimes Levy within a sentence, sometimes levy.

I didn't want to move the page, outright, to Tormented levy, but this is the only way to get it into the infobox, as |name isn't part of the template. And when I followed the links to the page I found all this, mentioned above. I don't think there's a guideline, right now? So, to begin with, there would basically be two options:

  1. Spelling as displayed in-game: If the character's title has all upper-cases (in dialog, when hovering with the mouse, …), then the pagename can remain, but all instances has to be changed to reflect this.
  2. Spelling as linguistically correct: Handling levy as a title, rather than a name, and seeing "tormented" as attribute, so all lower-case.
