Here are some rules for capitalization : * Capitalize all proper names of persons and places, e.g. Tom, Jones, France. Also languages, natives, and adjectives applied to places, e.g. Iraqis, French. * Capitalize titles and official positions when they are attached to a proper name, e.g. king becomes King John, councilman becomes Councilman Jones. Also when it follows a signature, "Bill Smith, Administrator" or when used in quotations and direct address, as if the proper name was attached. "How are you today, Governor?" * Capitalize the first word of a sentence. * In written communication, capitalize the first word of a salutation and the first word of a complimentary close. "Dear Mr. Smith" "Yours truly" "Very sincerely yours". * Capitalize compass directions only when they are applied to a known and specific region : If you drive far enough west and south, you will be in the Southwest. Marco Polo returned from his travels in the East. * Capitalize the first and last words of a title, but not articles and prepositions within them. "The Shawshank Redemption", "The Taming of the Shrew", "What Are Little Girls Made Of". * Capitalize government bodies and entities only when they are part of a specific name, not when used alone, even when applied to a specific entity. "I work for the city." "He represents the City of New Orleans.""She worked for the State Board of Examiners." * Capitalize a department or bureau name if you have previously established it as a shortened form for the body. "I worked for the CIA (the Agency). I was later pursued by the Agency." * Capitalize, for style, the first word of a sentence after a colon if there are additional sentences that would also follow the colon. Do not capitalize lists after a colon. "I found three things : a bell, a book, and a candle." * Do not capitalize seasons (spring, summer, autumn, winter) except where it would be unclear that the reference is to the time of year, i.e. "I was injured during the Fall." "Water always flows in the Spring." (The ambiguous use could also be otherwise clarified : fall of 2001, springtime, etc.)
