An image of the manuscript that is the subject of this article appears at the Aboca Museum home page. If you look closely at the spine, the original capitalization is "De ludo schaccorum". That is what one should expect.
The manuscript is written in Latin. In Latin, titles are written in what is sometimes called sentence case in English: Only the initial letters of the first word, of proper nouns. And of proper adjectives are capitalized. In rendering titles of works, XIV follows the capitalization of the original. See, for example, De revolutionibus orbium coelestium (another work in Latin). Although some secondary sources have altered the original title to follow English language title case, XIV does not alter original titles. Finell (Talk) 08:33, 14 April 2008 (UTC)※
The correct word is scacchorum in latim, not "schaccorum". Please, see Scacci. --Roberto Cruz (talk) 17:32, 14 May 2008 (UTC)※

Pacioli's original (with outlaw pawn)?
According to the video in the EL ※ (at 16:35) Raymond Keene has got the kings and "queens reversed in the set up." 86.173.41.168 (talk) 18:30, 22 November 2013 (UTC)※
- This would surely put a question mark over much of the current Critical analysis section? 86.173.41.168 (talk) 11:39, 24 November 2013 (UTC)※
