Capitalization
Why is the "A" in "accountant" capitalized in the title of the article but not in the body? If "Chartered Accountant" is a proper noun, then the A should be capitalized throughout the article. If it isn't, then it should be lowercase, including in the article's title. Tad Lincoln (talk) 04:07, 10 August 2015 (UTC) Tad Lincoln

Chartered Accountant → Chartered accountant – Move to lower case, per WP:JOBTITLES; American Heritage, Collins, Macmillan. Merriam-Webster dictionaries all list this as lower case. Chris the speller yack 21:53, 9 December 2015 (UTC)
