Name[]

I believe it would be better to refer to the group as their canonical name is designated in the Fallout 3 Official Game Guide, as the "Eastern Brotherhood of Steel." Although I do understand it may bring minor conflicts in the Eastern BoS and the actual East Coast/Eastern Division of BoS, it would adhere more to canonical designation, rather than implying they either have no name, or are simply referred to as the "Chicago detachment", of which they are never actually referred to as, rather being a "small detachment in Chicago."

Changing grammar inside a reference[]

22:20 (cur | prev) 0‎ New California Ahoy talk contribs It's not correcting the grammar, it's just what you're supposed to do when you're quoting.

We cannot correct nor alter a reference's grammar nor content. We can correct our own.--Ant2242 (talk) 03:45, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

There are instances when you alter a quotation, and this is one of them. When you quote something that already has quotation marks inside, you are suppose to change those to single quotation marks. I'm not correcting the text, I'm just correcting how it was cited. See this quotation guide by Monmouth University. - (New California Ahoy Bear of the North Star lapel pin FO76 Red star pin "Who are you, that do not know their history?" 04:55, 19 December 2020 (UTC))
NCA is correct. Tägäżïël 12:25, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
If that is the case as you say then how do we distinguish when the spelling and/or grammar of the text is incorrect?--Ant2242 (talk) 02:30, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
