Forum:CT Archive/Punctuation in image captions

It was recently made known to me that punctuating image captions has no basis in policy or consensus. Hence this CT. My objective with this thread is not to create or amend a policy, but rather to see where consensus lies.

I personally feel captions look far better when punctuated (more "professional," in a way). It is also widely used on Wikipedia, although I am aware that We Are Not Wikipedia.

This is not a very complicated issue, so let us skip directly to the vote/debate. --Imperialles 11:27, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

If option 2 were to be successful, the whole image caption deal would be left up to the author's preference. --Imperialles 11:27, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
