Capitalization

So, I've been wondering if we should set some kind of official rules for capitalization of this term (and others), at least within the wiki. Technically, a title like "agent" shouldn't be capitalized until it becomes a proper noun, as in Agent Example. Same goes for the words "department," "division," etc.--they'd be lowercase unless you use them as a name: the Department of Stuff. Thoughts? Neshomeh 02:59, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

I've always taken it for granted that those things were capitalized, myself. Maybe they're capitalized when referring to specifics ("Agent Suicide" or "that Agent" for example, as opposed to "the agents")? I know in the case of an agent or department name it'd probably be capitalized on account of technically being part of the agent/department's name, and thus a proper noun, but otherwise not sure.
