Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in American Elements, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. In almost all circumstances with respect to infoboxes, titles, subheadings, etc., Wikipedia uses sentence case, not title case. "Chemicals and metals" is correct in an infobox; "Chemicals and Metals" isn't. Please see MOS:CAPS, which doesn't appear to address this specific circumstance (yet... dang it) but which I hope will demonstrate that we really, really prefer sentence case ("The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog") to title case ("The Quick Brown Fox Jumps Over The Lazy Dog") in most circumstances except actual titles of actual creative works here.

Thank you for paying attention to detail, though! You guessed, you left a GOOD edit summary (that let me leave a narrowly focused guideline notification; there are a LOT of stylistic issues that are idiosyncratic to Wikipedia and you can cure your insomnia by reading all of them at WP:MOS), and now you know what our actual style manual prescribes. Thank you! All the best--JDL. Julietdeltalima (talk) 01:19, 23 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
