:: '''It's not "faulty" or an "obvious flaw".''' Both conventions are well-represented, and unless you're taking an arbitrary prescriptivist position, both are correct. All that matters is that the Wiki be consistent. The fact of the matter is that most DWU sources go with the [ Davros's ] convention rather than the [ Davros' ] convention. Neither's incorrect — that is not up for debate, and it never has been. The question is what convention the Wiki will decide to adopt. I think it brings us closer to most DWU sources to go with the "restating the S" trend. Most people on here seem to agree. <span style="color: #baa3d6;font-family:Comic Sans;">[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|'''Scrooge MacDuck''']]</span> <span style="color: #baa3d6;">[[User_talk:Scrooge MacDuck|⊕]]</span> 17:52, 13 May 2022 (UTC) | :: '''It's not "faulty" or an "obvious flaw".'''

:::I have always been told that s's is incorrect and it needs to be s'. However, it is entirely possible that it’s country-based. But let’s not stray from the purpose of the discussion. ——[[User:Danniesen|Danniesen]] [[User talk:Danniesen|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 18:09, 13 May 2022 (UTC) |
