This issue is troublesome because there is no universally-accepted method. For a brief introduction to the topic there is an article in wikipedia called [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanization_of_hebrew Romanization of Hebrew]. Of the various options, we have chosen to use the "Common Israeli" version, except that the 8th Hebrew letter should be denoted by 'ch'. While this represents the official recommendation of the site, we realize that there are often numerous variations in spelling, some more common than others. We hope to list such spellings at the bottom of the given synonymous page, and to create a redirect page accordingly, and we encourage your help in this regard. | This issue is troublesome because there is no universally-accepted method.

==Capitalizing Titles== | |||
Halachipedia adopts the "Title case" for its style of capitalizing page and section titles. The rules of "Title case" are as follows: | |||
* Capitalize the first and last word in a title, regardless of part of speech | |||
* Capitalize all words except for articles (a, the), prepositions (to, at, in, with), and coordinating conjunctions (and, but, or) | |||
For example: How to Edit Halachipedia (all words capitalized except “to,” which is a preposition). | |||
