A-Level → A levelA level – Removing the hyphen per common usage and moving to sentence case.

The spelling with no hyphen and a lowercase "L" is used by dictionary.com, the Cambridge Dictionary, Merriam Webster, the Collins English Dictionary, the Macmillan Dictionary, and the Britannica Dictionary.

• Oppose per MOS:RETAIN and WP:ENGVAR. --112.204.206.165 (talk) 04:28, 15 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  How is this a matter of WP:ENGVAR? The article title isn't in sentence case, which is already an issue, and there's no evidence to suggest that the proposed title is a matter of national English variants. :3 F4U (they/it) 21:22, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  See discussion below from Walt Yoder. 112.204.206.165 (talk) 03:16, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  I have no idea how ENGVAR comes into play. Americans rarely talk about A-levels at all, and I don't claim to know if other non-UK countries capitalize it differently. Walt Yoder (talk) 16:43, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment I think it should match the article title for O-Levels, GCE Ordinary Level; so this should be called GCE Advanced Level -- 64.229.90.172 (talk) 06:32, 21 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Oppose the proposed title scans as if it is referring to "a level" in a video game. From Google search results, there seems to be a wide spread of usage, with A-level and A Level the most common. Walt Yoder (talk) 03:12, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  I actually do understand the potential for confusion with a "level". Maybe "A-level" is the best title here then, since that would put it in sentence case and minimize potential for confusion. :3 F4U (they/it) 22:28, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Move to A-level per above. The "level" part is not generally capitalised in sources: [1]  — Amakuru (talk) 13:17, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  There's a lot of previous discussions in Talk:A-Level/Archive 1 for moving this article title. 112.204.197.139 (talk) 09:48, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Support A-level per common usage. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:27, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment The OED says it is A level. Martin Tauchman (talk) 15:19, 7 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Perhaps, but an ngram assessing all the options suggests that A-level is by some distance yhe most common across all books.[2]  — Amakuru (talk) 17:46, 7 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Also in King's School. Canterbury: [3] they uses "A-Level". 112.198.121.177 (talk) 11:14, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
