X-Tension - bad manual?[edit]

Hi, I was just working through expanding and referencing the section on X-Tension. I can't find any sources on X-Tension being criticised for a bad manual. Even by actively googling "X-Tension bad manual"/"X-Gold bad manual". Literally nothing. Plenty on X-BTF's bad manual, but nothing on X-T. So I'm deleting that bit for now, though if anyone can source it, feel free to put it back in.The Zig (talk) 13:14, 3 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bernd Lahahn - Lead Designer vs. Bernd Lehahn - Egosoft's Director[edit]

IGN give a great interview with Bernd Lehahn, which I've put in as a source on some info for X-Tension. Annoyingly, they've mispelled his name as Lahahn, and put him as "lead designer". For the spelling on his name, and his job title, I've gone with the information on the Egosoft's website, which also agrees with the info given in X-Tension's manual (both are linked in the article). Hope that makes sense.The Zig (talk) 13:14, 3 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

His Vs. Their - Edit War[edit]

Hi all. We seem to have the start of a little editing war with the following sentence. "The player is given a ship, some credits, and left to make his/their own way in the X Universe." I believe it should be 'their' as the sentence is regarding the player who is an indefinite gender; male or female. The only time where 'his' makes sense is if we change player to Kyle Brennan; which does not really work. I will change the sentence back to the grammatically correct 'their' for now.Xenon_Slayer (talk) 11:43, 19 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I absolutely agree. Almost reverted that myself. As well as being in widespread common usage, the singular they (for a third person of undetermined gender) has a literary pedigree that can be traced back centuries. It is used by writers such as Shakespeare, Thackeray and Mark Twain! I really don't understand why some grammar types get so tetchy about it - it's perfectly okay!
