I'm looking to make my version of Capitalization Standard Vietnamese
into an official style guide.
http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/User:Foolip/Capitalization_Standard_Vietnamese

See the competing proposal
http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/jesus2099/Capitalization_Standard_Vietnamese
and http://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Talk:Capitalization_Standard_Vietnamese
for the full discussion.

I fear you and jesus2099 are the only people working on vietnamese :(

If I understand correctly there is contention over including a (no
break) space before the !, ?, etc.. at the end of the sentence, and
you two agree on everything else, right?

Can we allow both styles in the DB?  As in, use whatever is used on
the cover or in the booklet.  

Or is it usually hard to determine what is used on the cover?  

-- kuno / warp.

If I recall correctly, the debate is over not even a space, but a quarter-space...  distinguishing that, on a given liner, on a case by case basis, would seem to be rather difficult.

I would tend to agree, and it's likely the kind of thing to be
inconsistent between releases and online information.
