== When to use titlecase == | == When to use titlecase == | ||
Wikis typically don't use titlecase unless it's referring to a proper noun. For instance, in an article title or section title, something like "A Guide to Using the Product (referring to an instruction manual by its title) would be in titlecase because it's a proper noun, while "Instruction manual" (referring to instruction manuals in general) or "(Product) instruction manual" (referring to a specific instruction manual but not by name) wouldn't be. This wiki is not an exception. | Wikis typically don't use titlecase unless it's referring to a proper noun.

When referring to the name of a work (not the name of a player or living or "living" thing like [[Garry]]), use the [[Template:ProperTitle|ProperTitle]] template at the beginning of the page to make the title render as italtics. | |||
