'''EDIT: (02:00, 22 June 2012 (UTC)''' - I would also like to ask that if we're going to be abbreviating titles, we only use what the games use, the kind of thing Neumannz listed (''358/2 Days'', ''Birth by Sleep'', etc.). We should NEVER use "''KH3D''", "''BBS''", or even something like "''Days''" in an article!}}
{{Maggosh|nathan=You do know KHBBS and KH3D are official terms used in Ultimanias, right?}}
{{EO|time=02:24, 22 June 2012 (UTC)|annoyed=You do know it's unprofessional to use acronyms like that in the articles save for those tag thingines we use in the galleries, right?}}
Like I said from the beginning--or rather, in the name of this thread--this is not about acronyms. We will not be using acronyms in the body of an article. So don't worry about those.  --{{User:Neumannz/SigTemplate}} 02:38, 22 June 2012 (UTC)
{{KrytenKoro|Oh thank goodness we can do that now.}}
