Talk:Dionus's timeship

Dionus' timeship?
There may be a point in the style-guide suggesting this, but it seems fundamentally silly to me that we should propose to go with "Dionus' something" to discuss elements and plot details of a series literally called Dionus's War, with the "S".

 * I proposed a change to the style guide quite some time ago which led to nothing coming of it. If the forums return, I'll definitely be bringing it up again, especially since we have to say "Fitz' noun" when every book I've come across says "Fitz's noun".

 * I'm not sure this is so radical as to necessitate a Forum thread if we can build a consensus on this talk page — particularly if the proposal is to amend the policy with something along the lines of "On this point, default to what stories/titles use if they do use something else than what the guide would prescribe, the guide will just serve as the default if necessary".

 * In which case, I'd support it. I'm always having to go back over what I've written to change "TARDIS's" to "TARDIS'" and the page name of Vera Juarez' brother pains me. Jack &#34;BtR&#34; Saxon ☎  15:21, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I support that amendment. I can't see any downside. Bongo50   ☎  15:25, 16 April 2022 (UTC)

I agree about using "s" after the possessive apostrophe, however, I've got a better suggestion on how to implement it:

How about we don't have a rule on this?

Both methods are grammatically correct, and are used interchangeably by people. Why don't we just allow both, regardless of whether or not how a story uses them? Surely the concern of using a "s" after an apostrophe should be the least of this Wiki's concerns? 📯 📂 15:33, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I don't think any concern is too small to warrant a rule for the sake of uniformity. Jack &#34;BtR&#34; Saxon ☎  16:08, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Agreed, this seems very sensible. – n8 (☎) 16:38, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
