coded Information
Not sure if you said you'd help out during the Roundtable or not, but if you're interested in helping us with the coded pages...Here be the goods for coded: FAQ First YouTube playthrough video. Neumannz had this to say: "pick a world, take notes on stuff that stands out, especially differences from recoded. Use the gamefaqs page as a guide." Thanks again! 04:22, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

RE: Dark Impulse
If you accept the reasoning behind why we don't mention "Terra" and use "the user" instead, the question on which pronoun to use only applies to the context of the sentence. From this point, everything before is irrelevant. Now that we have that out of the way, we need to decide whether it is more appropriate to use "him" or "they". "Him" is the masculine singular pronoun however, studying only the sentence in question, we assume the "user" is gender neutral, making the use of a masculine pronoun inappropriate. "They" is certainly a plural pronoun so ordinarily it would be incorrect to use it when talking about a subject that is singular. However, by convention, the English language has adapted an alternative use of the pronoun "they", where it used to refer to a neutral, singular subject, making it appropriate for the case we have here.

Also, note that nothing here is personal. I use my reasoning and arguments for the sake of debate to get my view across. In the future, you can always discuss things that you believe is incorrect, then everyone can talk about it until we reach a consensus. 18:57, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I do not believe in going off of assumptions; I base my editing off of what I've learned in classes and from other sources. A note for the future, I have an anxiety disorder, so if I ever seem like my behavior is uncalled for or out-of-place, it is because I misinterpret something or my brain naturally overreacts to a stressful situation, such as someone's view being opposite to mine or someone "trying to sound superior to me by saying I'm wrong." - 19:00, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Scheize, this turned into an edit war after I wandered off. Um, I changed it back to Terra because that seems fine, but if we did want to go back to character-nonspecific, "they" is vastly preferable to "him/her" or any similar kludge. 19:10, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I won't oppose this if it's what everyone wants; I do not wish to edit war or cause problems. Maybe the old me would have, but not my new self. It is just my personal preference (due to what I was taught in English classes throughout my schooling) that "they" refers to a group of people, not one person. Even if it sounds terrible (I agree it seems wordy), "him or her" is what is grammatically correct. That is what this Wiki strives for. Grammatically correct, professional articles. As stated in the Manual of Style (not that it is set in stone...). - 19:20, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
 * At the moment, the real debate seems to be whether we use the character's name or "the user". I go for the latter because it is used most consistently (at the moment, other captions are written with the "user" so if we change the format, we need to look through and change those). Does character change the appearance of attacks, like games do? If so, I would agree to using the character name but if not, I vote for the generic "user". 20:00, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
 * If I may, I feel the character's name is the one that applies best. I feel that using "user" kinda assumes others can use it, which we do not know if that is even true. Using the character's name doesn't necessarily deny the potential of other characters from using that same attack/command/whatever, but rather describes what is seen in the game itself. That's my opinion, though. 20:08, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I am in full agreement with you, KSM. - 20:36, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I guess I am outruled by majority vote then. 21:14, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

Awfully nit-picky wouldn't you say? Either term would work. 04:02, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I did it mostly for consistency, but that's all. - 04:05, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
