Capitalization question

[silvia]

I have just had an article rejected because of misuse of capitalization. The default capitalization on the title changed my version of:
'The Reluctant Projector – the fears of those who experience involuntary astral projection and how to help them' into 'The Reluctant Projector – the Fears of Those Who Experience Involuntary Astral Projection and How to Help Them.- which does seem to me to be over-capitalized However, I left it as it was the default suggestion. Alternatively, maybe the editors want the terms voluntary astral projection and involuntary astral projection capitalized. I just don't know. I have asked for an explanation but understand that they may not get back to me so any ideas would be welcomed. I want to resubmit as soon as possibly but don't want to have it sent back another time as I have read on the forum that repeated rejections end up with an account being suspended. Thanks

Good luck.

Hmm, yes it does seem like too much capitalization, but since it is a title, I would consider all of that correct, EXCEPT I would have unclicked the automatic capitalization box and capitalized "The" as well. I had a title a while ago that was similar and the capitalizer wanted "the" to begin with a lower case but I changed it myself and had no trouble.

But I honestly don't know if that was their only issue. Strange that they didn't say!

I would have thought if they were referring to the title they would have said so. I suppose you have checked through the article for any stray capitals.

Like Jak said, maybe its refers to one small mistake within the article. I got a two sentence rejection about misuse of capitols (in about a 200 word rejection "essay" only to find one errant capitalized first word of a sentence and no other errant capitals or forgotten capitals. When I resubmitted (after fixing very minor other issues) it was accepted right away without comment.
