Hi!
I Forgot To Include That Main Reason I Brought This Up Is Because The 2 Words
Above Aren't Abbreviated And The Word Delete Should Be Able To Fit Without
Being Abbreviated Considering The Word Stockroom Is Not Abbreviated And It Has
3 Letters More Than The Word Delete.
Thank-You For Your Time!

It’s a good question. If abbreviation, shouldn’t it be all caps, DEL or DLT?

Though I’m just as interested in a syntax that capitalizes all the words in a
compound-complex sentence, Jason?

We're going to change it to Delete. If you look at the partout page, which
has very similar features to My Inventory, you will see that the tag is spelled
out in full.

It's A Bad Habit I Think I Started It In Highschool As A Joke To My English

Okay, I see. I've wondered about the backstory or reason for it.

I can't get used to using auto-correcting software. Like most people, they
don't seem to understand what I'm trying to say

I've had to rely on proofreading. Which with my mind, is a poor substitute

Yeah, I Tried Proof Reading But It Didn't Go Too Well For Me So Now I Have
Autocorrect, And Me Attempting To Proof Read It And It Seems To Work Ok Most
Of The Time. (Other Than For Words That I Spell So Wrong They Are Entirely Different
Words )

I'm glad to see that Russell replied to this, and now we know for sure, but
I have to say that capitalizing the first letter of every word in the sentences
made this hard to read.
