Talk:Faunus Civil Rights Protest/@comment-130.18.210.248-20130818183008/@comment-11481298-20130825041945

I feel kinda responsible for this at least partially, so allow me to try to justify the change by pointing out problems with Fauna and Fauni. :I

'Fauna' was only a term given by the wiki, which is a fan-run site. Meanwhile, the captions on the video were made by Roosterteeth, to whom the show belongs. At the very least, it's safer to listen to them than to insist it's the term we came up with, which happened to have been used longer because it was all we had.

'Fauni' assumes that 'Faunus' and 'Fauna' are gender specific, and there's no evidence toward that despite the nod to the Roman god's name. 'Miltiades' was a masculine Greek name, Jeanne d'Arc was female, 'Yang' is the masculine half of Yin-Yang, and Nora probably has some male relatives who share her surname. That, and this is about the protest as shown in the news, so in the case of the title at least, it should be what Lisa was heard saying.

The only problem with 'Faunus' is that everyone's been using 'Fauna' for so long that it's stuck pretty strong. If it turns out later that it really was 'Fauna' and 'Faunus' was just a typo that happened to be able to mess with everyone, then okay, it'll be changed back.

Okay, so please feel free to dissect what I just said. And I'm sure every detail here has been mentioned already somehow, so this is just to put them all in one message. ._.
