Contents
Principal of Naming
English first
The title should be in English and in the widest use globally.
When a title is in other languages originally, we prefer it's translation in English.
Full names first
We suggest using full names instead of using abbreviations. This can make people understand their meanings clearly.
If some abbreviations have already been proper nouns, such as IBM, the USA and so on, you can use them freely.
Rules for Capitalization in Titles of Articles
Mostly, these following rules must be obeyed.
- Always capitalize the first and last word of any title.
- Capitalize nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs.
- Do not capitalize articles, prepositions, or coordinating conjunctions.

Duplication of names
