First, note that this is an opinion from someone who never contributes to this wiki's organization, although think it's obvious you have to handle each case individually.

  • "Apples of Eden", "Staves of Eden", "Pieces of Eden", etc. is plural, because it's about a group of artefacts. From the title, you already know there are more than one.
  • Same thing for Assassin guilds.
  • Weapon categories (swords, firearms, bombs...) should be plural for the same reason. Also this isn't Wikipedia: "Bombs" is about bombs in the series, not the concept of a bomb. See below.
  • "Hidden Blade/Gun" is a bit tricky. It's more of a concept than a weapon -> Singular.
  • Factions should be plural to avoid confusion. "Mercenaries" implies it's a group, while "Mercenary" would trick people into believing it's just a rank or position, see below.
  • Ranks pages are different though: they're about the function of the rank it refers to. Singular, then.
