 :It's not policy that all article titles are capitalized; it was a technical restriction (a.k.a. missing feature) in the software Wikipedia uses that disallowed articles beginning with lowercase letters.  It's my understanding that this has been fixed to some extent (i.e., articles can now begin with lowercase letters, but the first letter is capitalized in the article's URL).  See Wikipedia:Naming conventions (technical restrictions) and Wikipedia:Manual of Style (trademarks)#Trademarks_which_begin_with_a_lowercase_letter for more.  —  "
