DoorToNothing — I dreamed last night... I got on the boat to Heaven! And by some chance, I had brought my dice along! — 03:47, November 10, 2009 (UTC) Across the Wiki, I've seen links that are in possessive form written in two forms: Sora's Sora's I think that we should just decide on one format for links in their possessive form. Personally, I prefer the latter of the above two formats, just because it singles out the link. Please leave your opinions so that the necessary changes can be put into effect.

KrytenKoro - "It's always best when the other chap is willing to die for his beliefs; you both have the same goal in mind." TALK - I like the second, because it has simpler coding.

HeartofOblivion Talk to me! — There was something important... Oh yes! I've decided on the pancakes. Blueberry! Can you get me some cotton candy? Blue, not PINK !!!! — 04:16, November 10, 2009 (UTC) Second one.

Yer mom - SOMOS HOMBRES O PAYASOS!!!! TALK - 04:17, November 10, 2009 (UTC) I prefer the first one, looks neater. Plus, Ultima spent a good ammount of time making links look like that, why not just continue with that?

DoorToNothing — I dreamed last night... I got on the boat to Heaven! And by some chance, I had brought my dice along! — 04:21, November 10, 2009 (UTC) Even if Ultima spent time doing possessive links the first way, I have changed MANY possessive links to be in the second form, because I have thought that it looks neater.

Neumannz — Looks like I'm gonna have to jump...! TALK — I work alone! Except when I work with Xion...which is all the time. — 04:33, November 10, 2009 (UTC)   yeah, i've noticed that. though i don't know how that's neater than the first option (which i choose)

Ultima - Cake and grief counseling will be available at the conclusion of the test. Personally, I prefer Sora's. It's mainly because Sora's makes it look like only half a word is being linked. -08:08, November 10, 2009 (UTC)

LevL Fear my mighty instruments! I agree with Yermom, Neumannz and Ultima. It doesn't look neat when only half a word is linked.

Eternal Nothingness XIII - You have to be strong. Strength of heart will carry you through the hardest of trials. TALK - What I do, I do for friendship. — 23:44, November 10, 2009 (UTC) Definitely the second one. The coding, as Kryten so eloquently put, is simpler. Plus, the pages are not titled Sora's or Riku's or Xigbar's. While the actual appearance of an unlinked letter or two may seem visually unattractive (sorry, Wiki Fairies), this is what is correct. I believe that now makes it 4 to 3 4. For now, the winner is, in fact, Sora's
