Capitalization of common nouns

edit

@Jwkozak91: Wikipedia avoids unnecessary capitalization. In English, capitalization is primarily needed for proper names, acronyms, or for the first word of a sentence. Per MOS:INSTITUTIONS "Generic words for institutions, organizations, companies, etc., and rough descriptions of them (university, college, hospital, high school) do not take capitals". So "Ukrainian Canadian Civil Liberties Association" and "UCCLA" should be capitalized, but not "the association has distributed thousands ...". Please restore my edits.
