Capitalisation

[tunapizza]

When writing headings or titles should I make the first letter of the first word a capital letter, or make the first letter of every word a capital letter?

[rewboss]

Titles for literary works -- books, songs, plays etc -- are capitalised according to the following rules:

The first letter is always capitalised.

Proper nouns are always capitalised (as you'd expect).

Most other words are capitalised except for short words which have a purely grammatical function.

Here are some examples:

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
Gone with the Wind
The Wind in the Willows
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
The Colour of Magic

Thank you!! . But what about headings and titles for non fictious pieces of work? e.g. problems along the way: starvation and drought? Thanks again!!
