			:All pages other than the Getting Started Guide should use 3rd person. Perhaps the "Strategy" section on Monsters' pages is an exception to that as well. Otherwise, I wouldn't mind a list of the many pages that currently use 2nd person? :D
			:To answer your question, editors should use 3rd person when making edits. Correcting the surrounding text from 2nd to 3rd person would be a nice addition as well. [[User:Margotbean\|margotbean]] ([[User talk:Margotbean\|talk]]) 18:50, 10 September 2026 (UTC)

	:Hi there! You are correct, it is a new user restriction. If it's an update to the game's images that anyone (with unpacked game files) can upload, you can let me know which image changed. If you'd like to wait and make more contributions, that would work also. [[User:Margotbean\|margotbean]] ([[User talk:Margotbean\|talk]]) 18:10, 21 March 2026 (UTC)		:Hi there!

	::Hi, thanks for the answer. It's about one of the layouts for the shed, so not just one of the game files. I could send it to you, but it's not too important, so I'm also happy to just wait and do it myself at a later point.

			== Preference between Second-person and Third-person? ==

			Compare:
			# Until you give the marriage candidate a bouquet, their heart meter is capped at 8 hearts.
			# Until the player gives the marriage candidate a bouquet, their heart meter is capped at 8 hearts.

			This feels to me like a question of “guide vs. wiki” writing style. Second-person phrasing sounds natural in a guide, whereas third-person phrasing feels more appropriate for an encyclopedia.

			However, many pages on the wiki currently make extensive use of the second person. This creates a consistency problem when editing existing articles: should I 1) follow the surrounding second-person style so that new edits blend in with the rest of the page, or 2) deliberately use the third person where possible, even if the resulting prose is inconsistent with the surrounding text?

			Thanks in advance. [[User:Aquila zyy\|Aquila zyy]] ([[User talk:Aquila zyy\|talk]]) 18:36, 10 September 2026 (UTC)
