Re: [NTG-context] How to override ConTeXt-SBL titles, to make all titles everywhere capitalized?

[Joey McCollum via ntg-context]

I've avoided forcing capitalization in too many places in the SBL rendering
because there are often language-specific (or, within English, even
dialect-specific) differences regarding what should be capitalized. I think
I already enforce capitalization of the first word, though:

```
\starttexdefinition titleemph #1
  \emph{\Word{#1}}
\stoptexdefinition

\starttexdefinition titlequote #1
  \quotation{\Word{#1}}
\stoptexdefinition
```

If you want the behavior you've described, you can change \Word to \Words
in the lines above (in publ-imp-sbl.mkvi). I probably will leave the code
as-is, however, as it seems safer to expect the user to provide the desired
capitalization in the BibTeX file.

[NTG-context] How to override ConTeXt-SBL titles, to make all titles everywhere capitalized?

[Joel via ntg-context]

I am a few days from sending a document to a publisher, and using the Society 
of Biblical Literature style (via the macro ConTeXt-SBL) as it is very close to 
what I need, Chicago (numbers style) citations. One glaring difference I notice 
between the two styles is ConTeXt-SBL presents the titles of articles and books 
in lower case, but Chicago gives them in upper case (I think SBL should too, 
but maybe as my entire BibTeX file is lowercase, it is not). How can I tell 
ConTeXt to override the titles, everywhere they appear, so they are printed in 
uppercase? I've manually marked all of the words that should not be capitalized 
in my BiBTeX file as with \word{of} so they will ignore any instructions to 
become capitalized.
