A few days ago, I performed a few moves of pages in this category: a few like Hero (Class) to Hero (vocation), so as to reflect the modern terminology; and Luminary (Vocation) to the lowercase Luminary (vocation), as capitalizing "vocation" didn't match in-game use (nor the implied MOS). However… now that I've poked into this category, I see this is actually widespread. "Class" is used for all the categories and sub-categories, as well as pages like List of classes in Dragon Quest VII; while "vocation" is capitalized in every other parenthetical disambiguation (eg: Mimic (Vocation), of which there are a good dozen or so. I still think my changes were in the right, conforming to policy and style, but since it affects a lot of pages (and would be a bit of an undertaking), I thought it best to solicit community input and feedback about these moves rather than forging ahead unilaterally.

So, in short: does everybody think that a) pages and categories that use "class" should be renamed to "vocation", per modern translations and b) "vocation" should be made lower-case in page titles? Sham hatwitch (talk) 02:30, 26 June 2020 (EDT)
