BBC Beijing Olympics coverage
wasn't it used by bbc1 for the theme to the 2008 olympics?
Someone should most likely update the page name, as it currently has the "l" in "Like" in lowercase letters. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.72.212.219 (talk) 10:05, 8 November 2013 (UTC)
| On 22 April 2026, it was proposed that this article be moved from One Day Like This (song) to One Day like This. The result of the discussion was Partial move. |

- One Day Like This (song) → One Day like This
- One Day Like This (album) → One Day like This (album)
- One Day Like This (Doctors) → One Day like This (Doctors)
- One Day Like This → One Day like This (disambiguation)
– This song is clearly the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC and wouldn't it be "One Day like This" grammatically?

- Title case rules vary by style guide, and this is one such case where rules do vary. E.g. APA capitalises all words of four or more letters, AP capitalises prepositions of four or more letters.
- More importantly, if you look at the references section in the article itself, the vast majority of references capitalise the 'Like', spelling it "One Day Like This". Some capitalise every letter, particularly when they do so for all songs mentioned, but none render the 'like' in lowercase.
- I would take this to suggest that the capitalisation 'Like' is the generally accepted one, and thus the 'verifiable' one, and thus the one that ought to be used by Wikipedia. There is no clear reason to ignore these sources and do something different, and to do so would require a very compelling reason indeed. ~2026-24894-63 (talk) 03:09, 23 April 2026 (UTC)
- Weak support: It may be worth pointing out that Wikipedia also has a style guide that discusses this. See MOS:CT. It says to use lowercase unless it is clear that the topic is some sort of special exception. Three articles are involved in this move request (or four if we count the dab page), and only one of the three articles has had anyone comment about it specifically. The sourcing of the album article is clearly poor. Absent strong evidence that we should do otherwise in particular cases, Wikipedia should follow its own style guidance. — BarrelProof (talk) 15:50, 29 April 2026 (UTC)
- Oppose changing "Like" to "like". See also "Walk Like an Egyptian", "With a Girl Like You", and "She's Like the Wind". Mike Selinker (talk) 02:42, 10 May 2026 (UTC)
- Note: WikiProject Songs, WikiProject Alternative music, and WikiProject Rock music have been notified of this discussion. TarnishedPathtalk 23:26, 13 May 2026 (UTC)
- Oppose for reasons given by Mike Selinker (and ~2026-24894-63) above. Paintspot Infez (talk) 03:30, 15 May 2026 (UTC)
- Oppose The official titles for all the subjects here appear to use "Like", as evidenced by the album covers, press releases, etc. I think it would be strange to alter that to lowercase.Brianyoumans (talk) 20:07, 19 May 2026 (UTC)
