+      Capitalize the first word after a colon only if it is a proper noun 
+      or the start of a complete sentence. For example: <quote>Error 
+      message: The system could not connect to the server.</quote> 
+      But: <quote>Server roles: file server, Web server and database 
+      server.</quote>
