Personally, I follow the convention used in the Emacs manual, that is Dired
mode, Hideshow mode, Org mode, etc.
Extract:
╭────
│ 25.9 Org Mode
│ =============
│
│ Org mode is a variant of Outline mode for using Emacs as an organizer
│ and/or authoring system. Files with names ending in the extension
│ `.org' are opened in Org mode (*note Choosing Modes::). To explicitly
│ switch to Org mode, type `M-x org-mode'.
│
│ In Org mode, as in Outline mode, each entry has a heading line that
│ starts with one or more `*' characters. *Note Outline Format::. In
│ addition, any line that begins with the `#' character is treated as a
│ comment.
