What you are seeing

Headings containing product names or people's names are flagged by Heading capitalization, and the fix lowercases them.


#Why it happens

The capitalization check is a simplified heuristic that does not recognise proper nouns.


#What to do

Do not auto-fix headings containing names. Use Confluence page history to undo an unwanted fix, or set the rule to Off or Info.


#Settings involved

The Heading capitalization rule on the Rules page with its Mode dropdown open, offering Sentence case, Title Case (AP Stylebook) and Title Case (Chicago Manual of Style).
The capitalization mode decides which style headings are checked against, so changing it changes what gets flagged.

#A few things that catch people out

  • The empty-page word threshold (10) and the no-headings minimum (100) are fixed. The settings model accepts values for them but no screen sets them and the detection code ignores them.
