Change 'attribiute' to 'attribute' and change 'co-captain's' to 'co-captains Kbf.0405 (talk) 19:00, 27 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

Partly done: I fixed the spelling on "attribute", but "co-captain's" with an apostrophe does make grammatical sense to me, so I've left that as-is. - Umby 🌕🐶 (talk) 22:18, 27 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

I am rather certain there are two co-captains. Slomo666 (talk) 22:20, 27 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

@Slomo666 Actually yeah, you're right. I checked the source for this request and the pluralized "co-captains'" was picked up as italicized text in wikitext. Whoops :) This is now

Done in full. - Umby 🌕🐶 (talk) 00:04, 28 October 2025 (UTC)Reply

Undue weight

CycoMa2, you've tagged this article as having undue weight on a European-American perspective, but it's not clear what content you're objecting to. It might help if you flagged the offending sections more specifically, or if you described what should be added/removed to the article. That would help any interested editors in addressing the issue, or help you figure out a plan if you want to edit the article. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 🛸 05:04, 26 December 2025 (UTC)Reply

Went ahead and deleted that (admittedly kinda impressive and a little funny) vandalism. The source doesn't match what it said, and I feel confident trashng it. Hydronym89 (talk) 03:16, 25 January 2026 (UTC)Reply
