Excessive "quotation marks"[edit]

Why are terms like "Jammer Pac-Man", "power pellet", "sleeping ghosts" in quotation marks? This does not seem necessary (aside maybe from the first time they're mentioned) and looks weird.

Also, does anyone know what the plural of Pac-Man is? --146.255.182.74 (talk) 13:59, 8 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Jammer Pac-Man, and "Sleeping ghosts" should be put in quotations in their first appearance. Power pellets don't necessarily mean to, but it wouldn't hurt to have them either. It seems an IP user (not you) put quotations marks for every time they appeared after their first usage, which is improper, and I'll fix it in a second.
It seems to be "Pac-Men" from the sources I've seen. However, it's pretty off in my opinion, and I've written around the term instead. Panini!^🥪 14:34, 8 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I can answer the second question: According to Nintendo and Bandai Namco, "Jammer Pac-Man" is the correct plural of "Jammer Pac-Man". See this reference. Hockeycatcat (talk) 11:38, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
