Custom store words that need a capital letter

Does Zotero have a function or plugin where I can store my own list of words that require a capital letter even in sentence case. I do a lot of research around Islam and Muslims but I've noticed when I convert to sentence case, it does not capitalise these nouns.

    At the present time, Zotero will convert to "sentence case" and first-letter capitalization of proper nouns is lost. Zotero 7 will retain upper case for certain abbreviations and acronyms. I agree that it would be nice to have a plug-in of words, names, or labels that should begin with an upper case letter. But even with a list, editing would still be needed as there are numerous place names that are also commonly-used simple nouns (China/china).

    Agreed editing would always probably be needed, it would just be good if we could do our own personalised list of words we commonly use in our own work so it would cut down on the editing immensely.

    I think some smart behavior around this is a good idea, yes. Could also e.g. be use to always treat species names correctly for biologists, etc. This would work well as an add-on, too, if someone were interested in coding it.
