  • Hello,

    I do not agree with your suggestion here. This is the second line of the button text and not the primary label.

    • The leading number, albeit not recommended, qualifies as the beginning of the sentence, thus the adjacent word is not capitalized.
    • If your intention was to enforce the title case, then "last" should also be capitalized.

    I'm not quite sure if we should apply title case here too, because it is a description and not the title itself.

    I wrote this suggestion because other phrases uses '# Comments', '# Threads' or '# Members' in the core and apps. In Spanish, my mother tongue, we dont use capitalized letters after a number (same rule).

    In all case, the English level of anyone on this forum is better than mine. ;)

  • Got it! The other occurrences mentioned by you are a bit more difficult because they are written in title case. The line between using title case and not are a bit muddy though, so it is up for discussion if we should extend it to the description.

    That said, we’re quite consistent with not applying title case to descriptions therefore we will not make a change at this point.
