Usage
editConverts the first ASCII letter character of a string to uppercase. This behavior is different from the magic word ucfirst, which affects the first character of a string regardless of whether it is a letter or not.
Examples
edit{{ucfirstletter|test}}
→ {{subst:#invoke:String|match|test|%A*}}{{subst:uc:{{subst:#invoke:String|sub|{{subst:#invoke:String|match|test|%a.*}}|1|1}}}}{{subst:#invoke:String|sub|{{subst:#invoke:String|match|test|%a.*}}|2}}
{{ucfirstletter|(test)}}
→ {{subst:#invoke:String|match|(test)|%A*}}{{subst:uc:{{subst:#invoke:String|sub|{{subst:#invoke:String|match|(test)|%a.*}}|1|1}}}}{{subst:#invoke:String|sub|{{subst:#invoke:String|match|(test)|%a.*}}|2}}
{{ucfirstletter|6th century}}
→ {{subst:#invoke:String|match|6th century|%A*}}{{subst:uc:{{subst:#invoke:String|sub|{{subst:#invoke:String|match|6th century|%a.*}}|1|1}}}}{{subst:#invoke:String|sub|{{subst:#invoke:String|match|6th century|%a.*}}|2}}

{{ucfirst:6th century}}
