* The words '''<nowiki />''sun'', ''earth'', and ''moon''<nowiki />''' do not take capitals in general use ({{dothis|The sun was peeking over the mountain top}}; {{dothis|The tribal people of Matar thought of the whole earth as their home}}). They are capitalized when the entity is personified ({{xt|Sol Invictus ("Unconquered Sun") was the Roman sun god}}) or when used as the name of a specific body in a scientific or astronomical context ({{dothis|The Moon orbits the Earth}}; but {{xt|Kileakum is a moon of Eclipticum}}).

* '''Names of planets, moons, asteroids, comets, stars, constellations, and galaxies''' are proper names, and therefore capitalized ({{dothis|The planet Zorast sometimes eclipses the star Amarr, as seen from the surface of Oris~~}}; {{~~}}; {{dothis|The Andromeda Galaxy is a spiral galaxy}}). The first letter of every word in such a name is capitalized ({{dothis|Old Man Star}} and not {{notthis|Old man star}}; {{dothis|New Eden}}, not {{notthis|New eden}}).

The first letter of every word in such a name is capitalized ({{dothis|Old Man Star}} and not {{notthis|Old man star}}; {{dothis|New Eden}}, not {{notthis|New eden}}).

* Words such as '''<nowiki />''comet'' and ''galaxy''<nowiki />''' should be capitalized where they form part of an object's proper name ({{dothis|New Eden Cluster}}).
