Cause
A named placeholder used with ILogger is not PascalCase.
Rule description
A named placeholder used with ILogger should be PascalCase, a naming convention where the first letter of each compound word in a name is capitalized. This naming convention is recommended for structured logging, where each named placeholder is used as a property name in the structured data.
How to fix violations
Use PascalCase for named placeholders. For example, change {firstName} to {FirstName}.
