Oppose per WP:TITLETM and WP:NATDIS. The independent RS usually capitalize the name, and most also keep the period as well. The proposed formatting (They, with only the capital T and no period) is generally nonexistent in the sources. Additionally, "THEY." does well as a natural disambiguation, as no other "They" is generally spelled with all caps and a period. — Ceso femmuin mbolgaig mbung, mellohi!

FYI, Rolling Stone is a relatively high quality source and it uses exactly what is proposed (only capital T, no dot) – "Los Angeles duo They sing on the DJ collaboration ...". — BarrelProof (talk) 06:00, 18 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Trivial stylization, which MOS:ALLCAPS explicitly advises against capitalizing. Plus it's a pain to read. Popcornfud (talk) 17:52, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support - It requires an overwhelming majority of sources to use this kind of jarring stylization. Primergrey (talk) 18:28, 17 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support per several comments on our stylization/title policy/guidelines above. Dicklyon (talk) 05:23, 18 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support per MOS:TM, MOS:CAPS, MOS:TITLES, WP:NCCAPS. This is a trivial "MARKETING ALL-CAPS" over-stylization, and does not represent an acronym. This is essentially the exact same cases as GANGSTA. → Gangsta (manga) and several other cases of over-capitalization and/or extraneous punctuation marks. — SMcCandlish☏¢ 😼 21:20, 18 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
