NWR: English teachers--I have a question for you!

In a title, would you capitalize the word 'after'?

Thanks!

Microsoft word picks it up as a mistake, I just tried it.

microsoft word isnt the the most reliable. i have done papers where they miss important stuff (ex- subject-verb agreement) and where they correct stuff that is correct.

I would capitilize it, just b/c. my rule is usually this:

'For books and other titles, capitalize the first and last word, as well as all the nouns, pronouns, adjectives, verbs and adverbs. Also capitalize any conjunction or preposition that is at least four letters long.'

since after is a preposition that is more than 4 letters i would capitilize it.
