  • 00:1800:18, 2 December 2019 diff hist −1 Cockchafer   As the insect in question is not a true bug, the common name <i>“maybug”</i> needs to be written as one word,not two.  It is only correct to write <i>“bug”</i> as a separate word, when describing an insect that is a true bug.

  • 20:5720:57, 10 August 2019 diff hist −1 m Skywalker family History:   Fixed an instanceof Han Solo being referred to with the feminine pronoun <i>“she”.  A long time ago,in a galaxy far, far away, they were clear about the differences between men and women, and which pronoun to use.  Sadly, not so much true here, today.
