What is the policy regarding capitalization of terms such as 'bombs', 'bombchu', 'beamos' and the like? If there is no policy in place, I suggest we create one. This page alone has several such terms that appear both ways mid-sentence. I'm tempted to say place names and character names, as well as proper names for items like the Master Sword should be capitalized, but words for general things like bombs, bows and arrows, etc. should be all lower-case. I'm not sure what to say when it comes to enemy names, like stalfos/Stalfos. | What is the policy regarding capitalization of terms such as 'bombs', 'bombchu', 'beamos' and the like?

:Our goal is to generally capitalize anything important. This can range from: cities, towns, people, enemies, items, game names, so on and so forth, anything of interest that stands out from normal English. It's not absolutely important to do this, but it makes it look a heck of a lot nicer if we do it. {{:User:Josh/sig}} 14:12, October 22, 2011 (CDT) | |||
