Additionally,
do the following:\n\n- Don't use unnecessary capitalization; before you capitalize a word, think
about why (and whether) it should be capitalized.\n- Don't rely on a difference in capitalization to convey meaning. For example,
although people who are familiar with Kubernetes probably understand that a
capitalized Pod is a Kubernetes unit, and a lowercase pod is
any other kind of pod, that distinction is likely lost on many casual
readers or those who are new to the domain.\n- Don't use all-uppercase, except in the following contexts: in official
names, in abbreviations that are always
written in all-caps, or when referring to code that uses all-caps.\n- Don't use
camel
case, except in official names or when referring to code that uses camel
case.\n\nFor information about how to capitalize specific words, see the
word list.\n\n\n## Capitalize product names\n\nFor information about how to capitalize product names, see
Product names.\n\n\n## Capitalization in titles and headings\n\nIn document titles and headings, use sentence case. That is,
capitalize only the first word in the title, the first word in a subheading after a colon, and any
proper nouns or other terms that are always capitalized a certain way.\n\nEven though you're using sentence case, don't put a period at the end of a title or
heading.\n\n\n### Capitalization in references to titles and headings\n\nIn references to any title or heading from a document that follows this guide, use sentence case
even if the title or heading itself uses title case. That way, when the title or heading is
eventually updated to sentence case, the reference will match.\n\nWhen you reference the title of any work or source that doesn't follow this guide, retain the
original capitalization.

following a colon, unless the text is one of the following:\n\n- A proper noun (Open source software: Hadoop)\n- A heading; see also Capitalization in titles
and headings\n- A quotation (Arthurian wit: "Bring me yon sworde")\n- Text that follows a label such as Caution or Note\n\n\n## Capitalization and figures\n\nUse sentence case for captions. Use sentence case for labels, callouts, and
other text in images and diagrams.\n\n\n## Capitalization in glossaries and indexes\n\nUse lowercase for glossary and index terms unless the term is a proper noun
or has another reason to require capitalization.\n\nUse sentence case for glossary definitions.\n\n\n## Capitalization and hyphenated words\n\nWhen a hyphenated word is the first word in a sentence or in a heading,
capitalize only the first element in the word, unless a subsequent element is a
proper noun or proper adjective.\n\n\n## Capitalization in lists\n\nUse sentence case for items in all types of lists. For more information, see
Capitalization and end punctuation.\n\n\n## Capitalization for tables in text\n\nUse sentence case for all the elements in a table: contents, headings,
labels, and captions.\n\n\n## Special capitalization style names\n\nDon't use a casing style name, such as camel case or snake case, to describe a
casing style. These names don't localize well and they aren't standardized. Instead, explain what
the requirements are and provide an example.\n\nRecommended: Enter the value for the
attribute field in the format where there are no spaces between words and the
first letter of each word is capitalized—for example, AssertionAccount.\n
