would be ideal although there may be space limitations. I was thinking 
that as long as we don't overdo it, the users would
hopefully figure the logic out for themselves. Perhaps we could mention 
the method in the Wiki thread from time to time
which should help. (Which may be your thought too Leigh?) We could 
submit Potential pages (several of if necessary)
to get a vote from the team whether to Capitalize or not. Again - just a 
thought.

Cheers,

Not too long ago I noticed that LINKS was capitalized, also that it is 
at the top of the L page rather than inserted alphabetically. I think 
being able to distinguish parent pages is a good idea, because they list 
relavant links. We would just need to make sure there was a key or 
explanation to make sure everyone understood what the capitals designate.

As you can see, all letters are CAPITALS which I feel could draw the users eye to it. I believe that the menus would be enhanced if the "Rock Solid" Parent Pages were displayed in all Capital Letters. Pages that are of particular importance and/or interest could be listed in all Capitals to emphasize this. Actually I Capitalized APPLICATIONS a few weeks ago, and I have had second thoughts about it as it does include a number of old sub-pages. Perhaps a better example would be one that has come up today, and that is TEAMS which I consider would be an ideal candidate to be in all capitals. It may require a little careful selection in choosing candidates. Anyway, what do you all think?
