Could you change the region's name "france" into "France"? It doesn't make a big difference, but I feel a little bit offended by the person who omitted the <shift> while creating it... Since it is a country that actually exists, it would be appreciated.
Merci!
I think that only the admin can rename regions...

No, I've definitely seen mods rename regions before.
Really?
Oh yeah, duh. I've seen it done too with regions that put spaces in to copy another region's name.

Yeah well really, it won't affect the region, it will only make an "f" become an "F"... I doubt Myrth you would prefer living in "europe" than "Europe"...

I know mods can do it, just not sure if they will. You should probably send that to the getting help page instead of to admin.
Actually, you are probably better off asking a mod directly. Preferably one that you are friendly with, if you are friendly with any of them. If not, just find someone who is, most people will help you if you ask nicely enough.

Advocating neoptism, are we? :P
I jest, of course. :wink:
Seriously, though, official policy is only to change regional names if the name is offensive.

The name of a country written with a small letter can be pretty offensive for a patriot. And this concerns not to change the region's name but the nature of a letter...
