[4.1 Preview] Phrases: Using Title Case does not match XF2 sentence case + a few related suggestions

In a change from XenForo 1.x, XenForo 2.x uses Sentence case rather than Title Case. Low priority 'bug' (if you can call it a bug).

Some examples I've found are below with a proposed new value. Where I've thought an alternate value would be better, I've put that in brackets.

Existing value	Proposed value
Main navigation ('Special' prefix feels cluttered as part of link text)
Special: Special Pages	Special pages
Special: Recent Edits	Recent changes (or Recent activity? ... Recent edits page lists creation of new pages too.
Watched Wiki Content	Watched content (or Watched pages? Safe assumption that watched link under main Wiki menu tab would be for wiki content/pages)
Your Feed	Your feed
Create New Page	Create new page (*see suggestion)
Upload New File	Upload new file (Or Create new attachment ... should use same wording as main page navigation. * also see suggestion )
* Suggestion: Could combine into a single dropdown (see XenForo "Watched" link in Forum section). Create new page V = assume standard page. A mock screenshot should be attached to this issue shortly. Attachment/file upload wording here should match the primary navigation page sub menu. Bonus points if creating pages via this link displayed an XenForo overlay with a list of wiki areas to save to. For an example, click "Post thread..." from the forum index.

Create New	Create new
Create New Attachment	Create new attachment

Create New Page	Create new page

Create New Category	Create new category

*Suggest reordering so that Create new page is first.

Marking this as fixed in the next release. A lot of public-facing phrases have been changed to sentence case.
Navigation collapsing has been implemented in XF2, but it only occurs if the Create drop-down will have both links. If it is just 1 link, then it is shown directly without using a drop-down.

Note that some phrases include the name of the wiki and not the word "Wiki". Names are still capitalized.

Regarding the sidebar entries you mentioned. These are not the default phrases in XenForo 2, since we only install widget definitions, and not any widget instances. Since you upgraded from XenForo 1, your existing Sidebar Blocks from XF1 were imported as XF2 widget instances. The custom names for the blocks from XF1 were used as the titles for the widgets. You can update the widget titles by editing the widgets in XF2's Widgets admin page.

Thanks for this - going through each phrase must have been quite the task!

Regarding sidebar, what you've said does make sense and I did later find this out. I created this issue prior to the public alpha (Alpha 1) but forgot to come back and remove this section from the issue. Sorry.
