DELETED! — 21:50, December 1, 2009 (UTC)   Ok, guys, this is getting bloody obnoxious. IT'S OK TO HAVE "apostrophe-s" AFTER A SINGULAR NOUN ENDING WITH "s"! As always, my sources is the all-knowing (citation needed) Wikipedia. Since we appear to be using this convention (Ventus's, Xemnas's, etc.) we should try to stick with it—unless of course there's an unresonable stink about it... Anyway, that's my two cents.

That's incredibley difficult to read when you thrown in apostrophes and quotations. Also, the proper English grammar is to use such terms as Xemnas's, Roxas's, Ventus's, Lexaeus's, etc. You would use the apostrophe after the /s/ only when the term in possessive form is plural, meaning more than one. So, you would so such only in the case of terms such as Shadows', worlds', bosses', Keyblades', characters', games', images', etc. If this is not already in the Manual of Style, I need to add it in there, because this is probably the worst grammar mistake that is used far too commonly on this wiki.
