capitalized() lowercases Armenian Ter- and Der surnames as particles: LEVON TER-PETROSYAN gives Levon ter-Petrosyan #1224
Armenian surnames with the priestly prefix Ter-/Der (Ter-Petrosyan, Der Kiureghian) are always written with a capital. Case repair reads the prefix as the Dutch ter and the German/Dutch der particles (nl.toml, de.toml) and lowercases it, inside a hyphenated word and spaced alike.
Of the Wikidata English labels of Armenian citizens holding Ter/Der, 41 of 42 change when their all-caps spelling is repaired. The parse itself is right (family Ter-Petrosyan); native-script Տեր- (47 Armenian labels, all hyphenated) and Cyrillic Тер- are unaffected.
The hyphenated form looks separable: Dutch writes ter spaced (ter Horst, ter Borch), never joined to the surname by a hyphen, and case repair already reads a connective inside a hyphenated word differently (rules/R4, case repair reads the unjoined mark: "Ortega-y-Gasset"). The spaced Der Kiureghian is the shape of von der Leyen's der, so it may be an accepted cost. #1160 (a particle at the end of a hyphenated word) is the neighbouring hyphen question.
Question: should a particle opening a hyphenated word (Ter-; is there any other?) be repaired as name text, the spaced form staying as it is?
