Is Graphical Evaluation and Review Technique a proper name?

[edit]

I think "graphical evaluation and review technique" is a common name not a proper name and therefore should not be capitalized. I know it is accepted practice in the industry to capitalize terms especially when they are normally identified by acronym but in Wikipedia capitalization is used only for proper names.

Although there may be some use of "graphical evaluation and review technique" as a common term there is a well-defined modeling and simulation method (see refs. in the article) usually referred to by the acronym GERT with a published textbook and at least one implementation (Q-GERT). In this sense, it is a proper name just as PERT is. Wayne.brehaut (talk) 06:07, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
