Consistency: Caps & Colons #44

Open CJEBond opened 6 years ago

CJEBond commented 6 years ago

There are a number of inconsistencies with caps/cases and colons. In the absence of any other preference, I would suggest adopting title case for headings etc, and 1st word only for other settings. I would also suggest ending all labels followed by an input field with a colon, although this requires restyling of £ entries.

Having thought about it some more, the original £ styling is probably better UX, and trumps consistency
