Just an idea, but should we have a template and group for gameplay mechanics for the pages I created, like bloom and ads? Just an idea

Just leave it alone, please.

I don't think so. The controller layout has shown that aiming down sights is not a proper noun.

I don't think that's really necessary. Since it's not a proper noun, it's not a "fixed phrase". That's all there is to it.

I know for a fact it's not a proper noun in the context of Destiny, so the grammar in the article must make sense. Technically it's still about the action because Bungie is treating it as an action and not a special phrase.

L2 is "Aim down sights", while you hold L2 you're aiming down sights. Triangle is "Switch weapons", when your press it your character begins switching weapons. If Bungie doesn't treat ADS as a special phrase then we don't have to. I wouldn't look at that and try to write an article about Switching weapons and be like "When the player uses Switch weapons, blah blah..." It would just sound like "When the player switches weapons, blah blah...". So that's what I mean when I say the grammar must make sense; don't treat "aim down sights" like it's a phrase that can't be altered, it's really an action.

YES, it's a gameplay mechanic and action. But there's nothing special about the phrase. Just like if we considered "Switch weapons" a gameplay mechanic we wouldn't be afraid to alter the wording like I described.

The title of the page is not the term, it's the action.

I moved it again to the more natural/readable Aiming down sights. The capitalization of "Aim Down Sights" seemed out of place to me, but then "Aim down sights" wasn't really readable. I think titles like that should be a phrase of what the player is doing. For example: What is the player doing? Aiming down sights. This is not an exact science but I'm happy with the page now.

I just noticed I had a message from you asking about a citation for something about the Hellmouth. I don't remember what I said about it.

Commonly known as a hash tag. It was an old English term for the symbol, it was used in mapmaking to describe the fields around a village.

I deleted the page because it had no content. By all means create it again; it just can't be a completely empty page.

Just create the page and I'll read it with the proper formatting.

Not sure right now, but it can evolve over time.

It can be more casual. Everything is optional, so you should include user page because it's an important part.
