En français, les noms de batailles suivent la règle de la minuscule au générique et de la majuscule avec trait(s) d'union au spécifique. Cependant, les manuels d'histoire ont tendance à désigner plus officiellement les noms de batailles en mettant une majuscule au générique «Bataille». Ailleurs, les noms de batailles en français suivent les règles habituelles et portent la minuscule au générique dans un texte suivi, et la majuscule dans une liste, sur une carte géographique ou un panneau de signalisation. 2, record 1, French, - bataille%20de%20Fish%20Creek
