Talk:Government and binding

Why is the "b" in the title capital? If it's the title of Chomsky's book, it should be capitalized, but if it's a common noun, it should not. Wikipedia article titles do not usually capitalize common nouns. Michael Hardy 02:25, 15 Nov 2003 (UTC)
I should really learn not to worry about these things. I had a read of the Naming conventions (capitalization), and had a look at usage on the internet. It appears anything goes. So, if you want to change the article back, I promise to leave the title alone. I'm still hoping to add to the content - it's on my mental to-do list. Regards Dduck 12:31, 15 Nov 2003 (UTC)
Making this article coherent
This page needs to show the various parse trees it discusses so readers can follow along. Instead of giving the four examples up front and then running through the binding principles, it should devote a subsection to each principle, and illustrate each with one or more examples.
Even while writing it, I felt the explantion of the c-command in "John saw his mother" was hand-wavy, so I'm not sure it's entirely correct. -- Beland 02:13, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
