[edit] Hi.... you've been busy
I'm glad to see you've been making some useful edits to many of the pokemon related pages and i'm quite thanful for another set of eyes to review the language, spelling, and grammar. Many of the edits you've made to the mechanics related pages have been VERY constructive :) One small thing i notcied was that you've been changing many uses of the singular they to "his/her". While such uses (his/her, his or her, he or she) are grammatically correct, when dealing with an article where there is the potential to be using such pronouns very frequently, the singular they is an accepted alternative to the awkward usage of / or or. For the sake of consistency i'd prefer that singular they be kept at least within the mechanic-related articles because they often have the need to refer to the player in a gender neutral tone. If you'd like to discuss this more, feel free to respond at my talk page. -ΖαππερΝαππερ BabelAlexandria 07:04, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
By all means, if you can rewrite the sentence so that it dosn't need the pronoun, and still sound good, pleae go right ahead. -ΖαππερΝαππερ BabelAlexandria 07:21, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
