Guidelines

The definition of taxonomy terms follows these conventions:

DO

  • Use a capital at the start of a term.
  • Use capitals for other words only if they are proper nouns.
  • Separate related terms with an ampersand (&).
  • Use generic names for products rather than brandnames, e.g. “vaccuum” instead of “Hoover”.

DON’T

  • Use “etc” at the end of a term.
