Pin 1 is square, and represents positive pin of cap.

On silkscreen, is it customary to add a marking to indicate + or -
side of cap?  The electrolytics have that big stripe, which is the minus 
side, so I thought maybe the silkscreen should have some sort of marking.

Any conventional wisdom on this?
