From initial feedback, it appears to be used [only in English](http://forums.zotero.org/discussion/18352/title-case-for-nonenglish-titles-call-for-info/); when items are cited in other languages, the transformation should be suppressed.\r\n\r\nIt would be good to describe the behavior in the specification, and including \"language\" in the list of CSL input variables would open a path to that. The details of how the value is handled by processors -- how it is to be structured or parsed, and the conditions under which text-case=\"title\" should be suppressed or invoked -- should be discussed as well, but getting the variable in place will be a first step.\r\n","html_url":"https://github.com/citation-style-language/schema/issues/55","title":"proposal: add \"language\" as a CSL variable","number":55,"id":1079296,"created_at":"2011-06-19T00:59:35Z"},"action":"created","comment":{"user":{"avatar_url":"https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/c041ad851db68edb33f53f96495e6ff2?d=https://a248.e.akamai.net/assets.github.com%2Fimages%2Fgravatars%2Fgravatar-140.png","gravatar_id":"c041ad851db68edb33f53f96495e6ff2","url":"https://api.github.com/users/rmzelle","login":"rmzelle","id":77951},"updated_at":"2011-11-11T04:21:46Z","url":"https://api.github.com/repos/citation-style-language/schema/issues/comments/2704843","body":"I added the \"language\" field to csl-data.json: 124eaffe765f787f26efef5d16796bbf141f0c26","id":2704843,"created_at":"2011-11-11T04:21:46Z"}}
