Language in articles

I thought about creating a short section about language, since I think it's better to use descent language and try to paraphrase explicit words as good as you can (e.g. "having a date with her" instead of "fucking her"). I would like put up a table containing often used words and according paraphrase for quick look-up or if s.o. has no ideas. What do you think? --trololove (talk) 20:17, 23 March 2014 (UTC)

In my opinion, text style should be similar to game style - so it really depends on the people who translated the game. Also, "having a date" is usually not the same as doing her/fucking her (see @HomeMate - Date is a special situation there). Usually "fucking" is described as "having H (with)". "having sex (with)" is also fine. We are not a wiki for platformers or FPS games ^^ but we still should use "neutral" language. Just my 0.02 (€-)cents. --hmoeller ^{[ Talk - Contribs ]} 15:54, 30 March 2014 (UTC)

explicit

adjective

1. stated clearly and in detail, leaving no room for confusion or doubt.

IMO, trololove's example sounds like beating around the bush, and that can be confusing. I agree that a wiki shouldn't have unnecessary crude or vulgar language, but explicit language is definitely welcome. - Loliturma (talk) 22:25, 30 March 2014 (UTC)

Aggree, actualy I meant crude or vulgar language (lack of words). Propably the example I gave wasn't good neither, but I think we all have the same opinion ^^. Gonna put it on the page. --trololove (talk) 09:54, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
