Can I use punctuation marks in the title of my article?

Punctuation can be used in the title of the article, and the following situations generally apply:

1. Whether the title of the article is one word, a single sentence or a complex sentence, there should be no period at the end of the sentence. Because a period indicates the end of a sentence, and the title is the author's summary of the full text, there is no need to use a period. Such as: "Kong Yiji" (Lu Xun), "The People's Liberation Army's Millions Crossing the Yangtze River" (Mao Zedong).

2. The title of the article is a complex sentence. You can add a comma in the middle, but there is still no period at the end of the sentence. For example: "If you get the right way, you will get many help, but if you lose the right way, you will get few help", "Born in sorrow, die in peace and happiness".

3. You can add a comma or comma in the middle of the title. Such as "Zi Lu, Zeng Xi, Ran You, Gong Xihua Sitting" High School Chinese Volume 5), "Earth, My Mother" (Guo Moruo).

4. If the title expresses a question or exclamation tone, you may or may not add a question mark or exclamation mark. For example, "Where do people's correct thoughts come from?" "(Mao Zedong), "Have the Chinese lost their self-confidence" (Lu Xun), "Let youth shine with light and heat! "(Qin Mu), "Farewell, Brother" (Yin Fu).

5. Dashes and ellipses can be used in titles. For example: "Dayan River - My Nanny" (Ai Qing), "The most precious thing in life...".

6. Colons can be used in titles. For example: "Language Sense: A Hot Topic in Theory and Practice".

7. You can use quotation marks and book title numbers in the title. For example: "On "Friendly Countries Surprised"" (Lu Xun), "Preface to "Scream"" (Lu Xun).

8. Spacers can be used in titles. Such as "Qinyuanchun·Changsha" (Mao Zedong).

9. For a title consisting of two sentences or two phrases, in addition to using commas or separators as mentioned above, you can also leave a space in the middle. Such as "Concentrate on tempering and make it easy and natural".

10. If the article title has a subtitle, use a dash before the subtitle. For example: "For Premier Zhou's Entrustment - Remembering the Farmer Scientist Wu Jichang" (Mu Qing, Lu Fuwei, Liao Youbin). To sum up, the title of the article does not use periods. The use of other punctuation should be determined by the title itself and cannot be used randomly.
