Correctly Capitalizing Your Titles

All words of your title, except for conjunctions and prepositions, should be capitalized. Obviously, you capitalize the first word of your title, even if it is included in one of these exceptions. Longer prepositions, like â€Å"around,† may also be capitalized. If you’re having trouble, peruse recently uploaded articles to get an idea of what others are doing. If you’re stuck on whether or not to capitalize a word, just ask yourself if it is one of the two above-mentioned exceptions. If it isn’t, capitalize it! Do not capitalize: a, an, the, in, at, to, etc. Capitalize nouns, verbs, pronouns, possessive pronouns, adverbs, etc. This means you should capitalize â€Å"Your† in a title. Some examples: Walking Your Dog Into the Forest Making Mobiles out of Scrap Metal What Time Is It? Travel Around the World The editors won’t reject an article if you capitalize every word except conjunctions. However, if you’ve got words that aren’t capitalized that don’t fall into either exception category, there’s a problem. Please be conscientious about your capitalization!
