In the game, the site is referred to as "hillocks" in the plural, e.g. "The Dwarven Hillocks of Febuker". "Hillock" refers to the hobbit-hole houses found in the site. If the article's title is referring to the site, not the structures in the site, shouldn't the title be called Hillocks? The same applies with dark pits and mountain halls. I would like if we move the title in the plural (along with Dark pit) so it is consistent with the in-game term. – [[User:Doorkeeper|Doorkeeper]] 17:23, 22 July 2017 (UTC) | In the game, the site is referred to as "hillocks" in the plural, e.g. "The Dwarven Hillocks of Febuker".

Hillock vs. Hillocks
In the game, the site is referred to as "hillocks" in the plural, e.g. "The Dwarven Hillocks of Febuker". "Hillock" refers to the hobbit-hole houses found in the site. If the article's title is referring to the site, not the structures in the site, shouldn't the title be called Hillocks? The same applies with dark pits and mountain halls. I would like if we move the title in the plural (along with Dark pit) so it is consistent with the in-game term. – Doorkeeper 17:23, 22 July 2017 (UTC)
- Rule N states: "Exceptions are proper nouns and terms that are always plural." Hillocks (the site) is always used in the plural in-game. – Doorkeeper 18:20, 22 July 2017 (UTC)
