* Acronyms and initialisms ''(See [[#Acronyms|above]])

* Certain citation styles (e.g. that of the Linguistic Society of America or Bluebook) require that certain parts of the citation, such as author names in alphabetical reference sections be written in small caps. If an editor has chosen this style, it should be respected per [[Wikipedia:WP:CITEVAR|Wikipedia:Citing sources]].

~~==Trademarks==~~

~~{{main|Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Trademarks}}~~

For trademarks, editors should choose among styles already in common use (not invent new ones) and among those use the style that most closely resembles standard English text formatting and capitalization rules. For trademarks that are given in mixed or non-capitalization by their owners (such as [[adidas]]), follow standard English text formatting and capitalization rules for [[proper name]]s (in this case, {{xt|Adidas}}). The mixed or non-capitalized formatting should be mentioned in the article lead, or illustrated with a graphical logo.

Trademarks beginning with a one-letter lowercase prefix pronounced as a separate letter, followed by a capitalized second letter, such as [[iPod]] and [[eBay]], are written in that form if this has become normal English usage. For considerations relating to such items, see the following section.
