lower or Upper case in part description - Michael Heidemann - 2013-01-13
I just found this
Code:
This scheme is described here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Title_case#Headings_and_publication_titles
as
"Capitalization of all words, except for articles, prepositions, conjunctions, and forms of to be"
or
"Capitalization of all words, except for closed-class words"
(not sure which one of both we're using here exactly).I feel that the LSC should also have a cleaning, clearing word on this. Just the native english members should know what we are doing and so we can - and should - fix it in a spec. So there will be no doubt about this question in the future.

I remember that post, it was by me. You left out the most important part of the quote.
That post just describes the established, undocumented de facto scheme we use for titling our parts:
Quote:when uploading, could you please stick with the current part naming quasi-standard, which is heading-like capitalization like this "Wheel Large Motorcycle with Holes in Rim" instead of "Wheel Large Motorcycle with holes in rim"

My fault. Thanks for your step in here. Sadly I can not find any discussion on this so far in the LSC corner.
