Examples

{{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}}

(compare to {{ucfirst:6th century}} → 6th century)
