Headliner
Introduction
Headliner is a web application that will do a few things to help make sure your essay or report title or
newspaper headline is grammatically correct. If you are doing an essay or report title, it will lowercase
the articles and prepositions and uppercase everything else. If you are writing a newspaper headline, it
will lowercase everything except the first word in every sentence that is in the headline.
Tips
-
If you want to capitalize a word (proper nouns) in a newspaper headline, you can put a "caret" (^) right before
the word. If you wanted to capitalize the word "canada" when typing it into this web application, you would
type "^canada" or "^Canada". Case does not matter as the application will fix it.
-
If you want to make an acronym entirely in caps (ex: FBI), you would put a "less than" sign to the left of the acronym.
You would type "<fbi", "<Fbi", or "<FBI". As with the previous tip, case does not matter.
