Implement sentence case in BibTeX import
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

Author: jodi.a.schneider

Description:
BibTeX importer should default to sentence case:

  • The first word of each article title should be capitalized. (Due to a limitation in Mediawiki, this is unavoidable).
  • The first word after a colon (:), period or full stop (.), or question mark (?) should be capitalized.[1]
  • No other words should be capitalized.

Humans can then do the fine-tuning, by capitalizing proper nouns:

  • Proper nouns (e.g., the name of the a person or country, etc) should be capitalized.

This helps to implement the policy that AcaWiki pages should be in Sentence Case

Closing as declined as the Wikimedia-AcaWiki project has been archived long ago and as there has been no activity plus a lack of maintainership.
