::I thought in the game it was called "large serrated disc". It's not adjectives modifying a noun so much as the name of an object, in the same way as "iron battle axe" is the name of a game object. If I linked to it, I would link it with this title. The old wiki also used this title [http://archive.dwarffortresswiki.net/index.php/Large_Serrated_Disc]. We don't have to go by the old wiki, but this title makes sense to me. --[[User:Turgid Bolk|Turgid Bolk]] 21:44, 3 November 2007 (EDT)

Is that the right name? Death Dragon 20:22, 3 November 2007 (EDT)

Moved. --Turgid Bolk 20:34, 3 November 2007 (EDT)
My feeling is that it should be titled the way it would be used in a sentence, for easy linking. Independent adjectives modifying the same noun are normally separated by a comma, so the title should have the comma as well. --Peristarkawan 20:35, 3 November 2007 (EDT)
