General Rules
* Sentences: If the text inside the parentheses is a complete sentence, the first word is capitalized.
* Not Sentences: If the text inside the parentheses is not a complete sentence, the first word is not capitalized.
Examples:
* Complete sentence: "The meeting is at 10:00 AM (Please arrive promptly)."
* Not a complete sentence: "The meeting is at 10:00 AM (in the conference room)."
Exceptions
* Proper Nouns: Proper nouns (like names of people, places, or organizations) are always capitalized, even if they are not the first word of a sentence within parentheses.
Example:
* "I met with John Smith (President of the company)."
