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 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. IAMAHIPO_ocolor 20:04, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
