More shiny -- capitalisation rule

When they're in a sentence, do things like Reading Page and Circle get capitalised or not?

I haven't been, and i haven't been seeing it done.

I'm inclined towards capitalising them. They're specific to us, and have special meanings on Dreamwidth which aren't part of regular English, so I think they warrant it. It's only an inclination though, so I'm happy to go the other way if the consensus is otherwise.

As a concerned memeber of the public :-) I agree with this. Capitalisation of specialised terms like that makes it very much easier to read FAQs and instructions.

I support the plan to capitalize things that we use officially. Reading Page, Circle, Network, etc.

I noticed the other day, looking at the raw strings, that there seems to have been a mix in use, but couldn't tell without going back and looking at the pages where all the strings were used if there was a rule behind it, or if it was inconsistent.
