I know, from working on outlines and research papers, that subjects should be used singularly. Is it the same with encyclopedias? Example: the hp regeneration article. It states that these are the species: Spotty Bulbears, ect. I think these are the sepices: Spotty Bulbear, Armored Cannon Beetle, ect sounds better.

:I was considering that when I added it, actually.  Change it if you want.  If you're at all referring to article titles, then we have it singular; templates are singular in all cases but footers; and categories are plural.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}} 21:27, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
