This is a naming conventions guideline for the naming of Wikipedia articles about books, which includes printed books and e-books.. The titles of books (usually meaning the title of the literary work contained in the book) are capitalized by the same convention that governs other literary and artistic works such as plays, films, paintings etc.
An indefinite or definite article is capitalized only when at the start of a title, subtitle, or embedded title or subtitle. For example, a book chapter titled "An Examination of The Americans: The Anachronisms in FX's Period Spy Drama" contains three capitalized leading articles (main title "An", embedded title "The", and subtitle "The").
Convention: In general, a definite ("the") or indefinite ("a" or "an") article should be included at the beginning of the title of a Wikipedia article only if at least one of the following conditions is met:
The use of modified letters (e.g. those with accents or other diacritics) in article titles is neither encouraged nor discouraged; when deciding between versions of a word that differ in the use or non-use of modified letters, follow the general usage in reliable sources that are written in the English language (including other encyclopedias and reference works).
In books and other works, the subtitle is an explanatory title added by the author to the title proper of a work. [1] Another kind of subtitle, often used in the past, is the alternative title , also called alternate title , traditionally denoted and added to the title with the alternative conjunction "or", hence its appellation.
The software treats all page titles as beginning with a capital letter (unless the first character is not a letter). For information on how to display article titles beginning with lower-case letters (as in eBay), or category titles (as in Category:macOS) see WP:Naming conventions (technical restrictions) § Lowercase first letter.
Naming conventions (plurals) In general, Wikipedia articles have singular titles; for example, the article on everyone's favorite canine is located at dog, not dogs. Naming conventions (technical restrictions) Technical restrictions with article titles, category names, file names, and other page names. Naming conventions (use English)
