Question of style

The various "nn Enn xx" pages seem to use at least two different styles of capitalization (approx 50-50 distribution):

Style 1:

  • Lighter masses
  • 102 g -- Small apple, see joule

Style 2:

  • lighter masses
  • 102 g -- small apple, see joule

For consistency, I think we should decide one of these styles, but which one? Or has this been decided somewhere. -- Egil 08:41 Apr 9, 2003 (UTC)

Probably this would be the right place for this, so I copied it here. I agree it should be consistent, no strong feelings one way or the other, but I guess I would actually prefer an intermediate style:

Style 3:

  • Lighter masses
  • 102 g -- small apple, see joule

but maybe that's just me. -- John Owens 08:50 Apr 9, 2003 (UTC)

I agree that style 3 has merit in terms of being logical (if we assume the "sentence" starts at "102"). I will change to style 3 as I add new entries (don't have the time to go through all articles, I think). -- Egil 07:00 Apr 13, 2003 (UTC)
