Headings

We mark Mixed-small-caps, as seen in the main heading above.

We do NOT mark all-upper-case headings or sub-headings, even when the letters look like all-lower-case small-caps. Headings are wrappable unless you use no-wrap or add blank lines. Here, the chapter ID, name, and sub-heading are separated by blank lines, but since the sub-heading clearly is wrappable, it wasn't placed in no-wrap.

First words

When the first words in a chapter or section are in small caps, we just change them to normal mixed-case and do not mark them.
