Capitalization

Shouldn't this be at dungeon master instead of Dungeon Master? --Furrykef 01:26, 18 Jun 2004 (UTC)

No, because the first two meanings, at least, are proper nouns. -Sean Curtin 03:51, 18 Jun 2004 (UTC)

The first sense occurs very often decapitalized...just perhaps not in official D&D material --Furrykef 01:43, 20 Jun 2004 (UTC)

I know, but by its proper definition it's a proper noun. -Sean Curtin 02:29, 20 Jun 2004 (UTC)

But doesn't Wikipedia go by common usage? --Furrykef 07:11, 21 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Yes, but spelling it without capitals is not the most common usage. -Sean Curtin 16:58, 21 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Last sentence

Also, in Faiths and Pantheons (AD&D), the Faerunian Overgod Ao answers to a superior entity, insinuated to be the "Dungeon Master".

What's that supposed to mean? wr 87.139.81.19 11:35, 21 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"He/she" doesn't flow very well

The constant use of "he/she" somewhat interrupts the flow of the article. I'm not sure what the best remedy for that would be in this particular article, however. (See Wikipedia:Gender-neutral language for a little more info on this topic). —Matthew0028 18:28, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I fixed it or feel I did. Thoughts? - 144.92.84.206 (talk) 16:12, 5 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
