* Plurals: Regular plurals can be linked by surrounding the singular term with [[Administrivia/TextFormattingRules curly braces]] and adding the "s": [={{Game Breaker}}s=], for example, becomes {{Game Breaker}}s. (Which should come naturally to {{Wikipedia Syntaxer}}s.) Irregular pluralization can sometimes be worked around, "[={{Compan|y}}ies=]" for example. Exceptions can be made for when it can't ("Men" for "Man") or plurals within the name (BossesInMookClothing for BossInMookClothing).[[labelnote:Exception]]Pages on the AmbiguityIndex that also fall under OneWordTitle may have plural redirects to the disambiguation page.[[/labelnote]]
