I can think of a few examples of plural nouns being used where singular (or uncountable) nouns should be used instead: "I say, monstrosity, do you know the times?", "I was an answering machine, this whole times!" Should those be added to the page, and if so, should the page be renamed? — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 22:37, 5 March 2009 (UTC) | I can think of a few examples of plural nouns being used where singular (or uncountable) nouns should be used instead: "I say, monstrosity, do you know the times?", "I was an answering machine, this whole times!"

:Possibly. I think that's more notable than just that they're the word "times" (referring to the [[times]] page). Dunno what to call it in that case, though. -[[Special:Contributions/132.183.138.223|132.183.138.223]] 23:57, 5 March 2009 (UTC) | :Possibly.
