Capitals
Capitals are used in the following situations:
- for the title of the page
- at the begining of a sentance, after a full stop
- for proper nouns; that is, nouns which refer to a place, a person, or a licensed item - London, Down, Frumil.
- for abbreviations, but only if the abbreviation is appropriate, or properly defined first
Capitals should not be used:
- at the begining of each line of a list; look at the way that this list is written
- to emphasise text except under extremely rare exceptions. The structure of the sentance should make any emphasis clear; the word in block capitals makes no sense outside of the context of the rest of the sentance and thus to draw the eye to it by shouting - as capitals are regarded - is pointless
