Editorial Title Case Rules

When styling headings in English (APA, MLA, Chicago styles): - Always capitalize the first and last word. - Capitalize all major nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs. - Keep minor conjunctions and short prepositions (under 4 letters like `in`, `on`, `of`, `the`, `and`) lowercase.
