Section heading sytle I am writing my thesis right now and I vaguely remember that I was once told that in an English paper/manuscript nearly all words of a section title start with an uppercase letter.
For instance:
The Influence of the 19th Century on some Important Stuff
(just something I came up with)
Is this right? Currently I am doing it a little bit inconsequently which is in my opinion even worse. Is there a certain style recommended?
You can find a pretty good summary at: Scribbr
But note that some universities will have a required &quot;style guide&quot; as do many journals. Your advisor can probably point you in the right direction, as could any of the office staff in the department.
But doing it inconsistently is a problem. Stop doing that.
