I have a question about how to write a title.
Some people who corrected my entries, let me know that I had better capitalize nouns in a title.
Would you please teach me the rules of writing a title in English?

1. You capitalize the first and last word.
2. You then capitalize every word that isn't a preposition or an article.
And that's it. When you want to want to include the title of something in your writing, though, then it gets a bit confusing. Some titles require you to underline the Title, while others require you to put it in quotation marks. Basically, if it's something that take typically an hour or more to read or watch, then it's underlined. All other cases use quotation marks.
There's a few other picky rules out there like "don't capitalize to in an infinitive", but those don't pop up too much.
