Talk:Zophan Canisters
"It" was in reference to "the type of currency". Referring to currency units instead of the currency itself just did not sound correct to me. --Zephyr Foxworth (talk) 16:06, 1 July 2014 (BST)
- Using "Zophan Chanisters are a premium currency" and then following with "It is a premium currency" doesn't sound right to me. Of course this issue seems to be one of personal preference. -Lugia101101 (talk)
The first sentence just funnels the idea of ZC into a singular 'type of currency' form. Similarly, GoldPoke reads as 'a currency' and is referenced as 'It'.Ok, I tried rereading the page with a few different grammatical interpretations. I've come to agree with how you've put it, and think just the phrasing 'type of' should be omitted. -Zephyr Foxworth (talk) 17:10, 1 July 2014 (BST)- In the removal of "type of" I believe you are referring to "Zophan Canisters (abbreviations: ZC, Zophan) are a rare and premium type of currency.". If that is the case, consider the following:
- Reading "Zopahn Canisters are a rare and premium currency," to me, sounds like "rare" is separate to "premium currency" and so it would register as "Zophan Canisters are a rare, and also a premium currency". Maybe "Zophan Canisters are rare and a premium currency" would be best. (Sorry for the rambling, it's 2:30AM and I don't tend to write particularly well at this time) -Lugia101101 (talk)
- Yeah, that was what I was going for. Maybe "Zophan Canisters ... are a rare premium currency."? Although, now I question the use of the word 'rare'... but I guess that's a bit nitpicky. -Zephyr Foxworth (talk) 17:43, 1 July 2014 (BST)
- "rare premium" sounds a bit excessive. Maybe omitting rare altogether would be best. -Lugia101101 (talk)
- True. It's not made clear why it's rare in the first place. -Zephyr Foxworth (talk) 17:54, 1 July 2014 (BST)
- Alright, I went ahead and removed "Rare". -Lugia101101 (talk)17:58, 1 July 2014 (BST)
- Also removed "type of". Forgot to do it in original edit. -Lugia101101 (talk) 18:01, 1 July 2014 (BST)

Zophan
Should Zophan be its own page, maybe? --Niet the Dark Absol (talk) 13:23, 19 October 2014 (BST)
