Per MOS:YOU, the use of the second person on Wikipedia articles is avoided. So I propose to change "Choose your own adventure books" to "Any gamebooks" on a table of the section "Subprojects". —Yours sincerely, Soumyabrata (talk • subpages) 17:53, 26 August 2019 (UTC)

Not done this seems to be a take on Choose Your Own Adventure, if so it should be fixed with using proper nouns. In any case, can you provide a specific reference to this to clarify before it gets edited through protection? — xaosflux ^Talk 18:11, 26 August 2019 (UTC)

Concur, the use of the second person (the only one I see is in the infobox in section Subprojects) seems to be made by a Wikipedia project and not by the authors of this article. Spike-from-NH (talk) 00:54, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
