Shouldn't it be renamed to The Capital ? Yann 09:09, 24 September 2005 (UTC)

Hmm, I don't know. My first instinct is yeah it should, but when people come to this site, they are going to search for Das Kapital and not The Capital. --CSN 13:50, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
No, we should leave the title as it is. This is one of those title everybody knows by its original name, and would do searches on "Das Kapital" in Google (no one would even think to try its English translation--even if they knew it). Mein Kampf is another title like that, too.—Zhaladshar (Talk) 15:55, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
It wouldn't be The Capital anyway, it would be Capital in English. I'm back, I was noticing OCR errors in the text and decided I needed to read the book before I edited someone else's version. I'll be working on this and the NASA FACTS project again pretty soon. Pedant 01:18, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
