User talk:Ncbyrne

Welcome to Wikipedia!

Welcome! My name is Cindamuse, and I'm one of the online ambassadors, a group of experienced Wikipedians who offer mentorship to newcomers. You don't need to read anything; you can just jump right in and try to improve Wikipedia. If you need help, you can talk with us right now, or can leave me a message on my user talk page. Have fun!

Capitalization of headings

THank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. The Wikipedia style for capitalizing headings is to use "sentence case" instead of "title case", e.g.,

Important things to know about this subject

not:

Important Things to Know About This Subject

This may be unfamiliar to many editors who believe that or have been taught that "title case is the right way to capitalize headings". It isn't the "right way", it is one style. Wikipedia has, for better or worse, chosen to follow a different style, i.e., capitalize the heading the same way you would capitalize any sentence:

capitalize the first word,
capitalize any proper nouns (people, places, organizations), and
begin all other words with lower case letters.

See WP:MSH for more information. Thanks. Ground Zero | t 12:08, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
