As I understand, in academic and literary contexts, it is appropriate to use capital letters for "significant words" in a title, with significant usually referring to pretty much everything but prepositions and articles.


Probably a level or 2 of geekdom above what you were looking for...

This is far from the strangest thing they do. Bugbears of mine include numbers (when spoken): 2009 becomes two thousand nine. And headlines, eg: Senate attacks spending, waste. Is an and too much to ask for?


I've just written a piece for an American newspaper and the changes they've made are bizarre. Still, they're paying so I won't complain.

    • As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
    • Also, just to add, the threat to kill someone's dog and try to kick it, is an additional extremely unpleasant layer. I have noticed a lot of the burst water balloons lying around in the park too- that is not great for the environment either.
    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him
