> Regarding the capitalization, let's check with Shawn or possibly Michael to see if there is a W3C WAI style standard. At a minimum, a document should be internally consistent, and, ideally -- if it's part of a library -- consistent with its peer documents. ... The MWBP document is now published as a W3C Recommendation and so whether we like it or not, the best practices "handles" are in all caps. See <http://www.w3.org/TR/mobile-bp/summary> The question is whether to: 1. Use consistent capitalization within the Experiences doc, which means conflicting with the source info/doc; OR 2. Match the capitalization of the source doc Give that the text is _directly from the source doc_ and links to the source doc, I think we should stick with the capitalization of the source doc, even though that means it's inconsistent in the Experiences doc. Lisa, take a look at where the links go (MWBP source doc) and see what you think... ~Shawn > priority: editor's discretion > location: Global, MWBP 1.0 columns > current wording: links are in all caps, not initial caps, as others > (WCAG 1 and 2) > suggested revision: Use initial caps in link text to MWBP 1.0 > rationale: Readability, consistency > > YY: In the original Mobile Web Best Practices (MWBP) document, they > are capitalised and to keep it consistent, I would prefer to keep > them capitalised. Would you mind if we keep them capitalised or would > you like to discuss this at the EO meeting?
