Daniel Dekany commented on FREEMARKER-97: ----------------------------------------- I wonder, even "because of" has to be all lower case? While "because" in itself is not a preposition, together with "of" it is part of one, according to the Wikipedia page you have linked. > Header capitalization using standard styles > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: FREEMARKER-97 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FREEMARKER-97 > Project: Apache Freemarker > Issue Type: Wish > Components: engine > Affects Versions: 2.3.28 > Reporter: T X > Priority: Minor > > FreeMarker offers a couple of simple algorithms for changing the case of > titles: > * > [https://freemarker.apache.org/docs/ref_builtins_string.html#ref_builtin_cap_firs|https://freemarker.apache.org/docs/ref_builtins_string.html#ref_builtin_cap_first] > * > [https://freemarker.apache.org/docs/ref_builtins_string.html#ref_builtin_capitalizet|https://freemarker.apache.org/docs/ref_builtins_string.html#ref_builtin_cap_first] > Neither of these capitalize the text in ways that adhere to various standard > styles: > * [Chicago Manual of > Style|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Chicago_Manual_of_Style] > * [Associated Press|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_Stylebook] > * [MLA Style Manual|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MLA_Style_Manual] > * [APA Style|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APA_style] > Consider the following texts: > * On iPhone the Transcript Extends Outside of Screen Frame > * PEAR And GNA Report Performance > * BCMailPlusFTPClient Sends Document without Document ID > * JWebUnit: Non-PEN Orders main.xhtml Meta Refresh Tag Issue > These are correct as written and must not be adjusted by an algorithm that > changes the text title.
