I would like to hear on why my edits was undid?

Hello, I, GuesanLoyalist, recently, I have done a small edit on the page for the Director of National Intelligence by editing the full name of the agency from director of national intelligence to Director of National Intelligence but however, you seemed to decapitalized it back to director of national intelligence which is why I came to your page to ask for feedback. Do note that this is not the first time that someone undid my edit and I will try to be open minded and polite to you.

@GuesanLoyalist: Job titles are, in most cases, lowercase on Wikipedia. Read MOS:JOBTITLES for more information. —Eyer (he/him) If you reply, add {{reply to|Eyer}} to your message. 08:06, 18 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for answering my question, Mr. Eyer as it cleared some confusion and misconception within my mind and I hope you have a Nice Life!

Never answered re: The Bronx

@Eyer: you never provided the courtesy of replying to my previous posted question to you. Does that mean your revert of my using a "The" cap "T" in The Bronx in Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's article here had no support? If so, maybe I need to revert your revert. I couldn't find the Wikipedia precept for your edit summary, "Lowercase in running text. The exception is “The Hague”. “The Bronx” isn’t listed as an exception", as I only found The Bronx with cap "T" in Naming conventions – other proper names (The Bronx) that seems to allow my version, but seems only applicable to the start of article titles. Will you direct me to support for your revert edit? Quaerens-veritatem (talk) 23:08, 20 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Quaerens-veritatem: MOS:THECAPS is the resource for this, I think. —Eyer (he/him) If you reply, add {{reply to|Eyer}} to your message. 16:53, 22 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
