''Xin bạn viết bài này bằng tiếng Việt.''

==In English==

* Do not capitalize any word except for:
** the first letter of the text
** the first letter of a sentence after . ! ? / :
** the first letter of proper and geographical names (persons, cities, nations, etc.)

===Punctuation===

Like in English, do not include any space before punctuation, including but not limited to ? ! ; : . , ...
([[Capitalization Standard French#Punctuation|French punctuation style]] can occasionally be found in printed Vietnamese, but rarely in digital form. In MusicBrainz, this style should ''not'' be applied.)

* Em còn nhớ hay em đã quên?

* Hà Nội café ơi!
* Liên khúc: Đêm cuối / Giận hờn
