I've seen several articles here that use plural nouns as their title, and while by itself such an article name may cause no confusion, when linking it becomes a different issue. (And some other confusion may arise, situationally.) The worst culprit may be the pila, which is plural (Latin) for the Roman "pilum", which is the weapon (an iron-age throwing spear) - but there are others. In DF, there was a policy along the lines of "All Titles are Singular unless the article is discussing all varieties in a group (exceptions are when in-game terms are plural)" - so, "Revolver" or "Grenade" or "Greenhouse", but (possibly!) "Weapons" (a comparative guide) or "Crops" or "Farming Tips". Might be helpful here? (And I'd like to change Pila to Pilum, but at this point it's almost as if it's a different, fantasy weapon - the dreaded Rimworld Pila!) \o/ Albedo (talk) 10:40, 13 January 2022 (UTC)
