Talk:Old Olney

"Overrun" versus "taken over"
People are trying to change the wording at the beginning of the article to say that it was "taken over" by deathclaws instead of "overrun" by them. I'd like to have a discussion about it instead of an edit war.

I suppose that "overrun" might imply that the deathclaws had to overcome some kind of resistance from defenders, which may or may not be accurate. However, I also feel that "taken over" is inaccurate because to me it has the connotation that the deathclaws did it deliberately, but this strikes me as unlikely since the deathclaws in Fallout 3 are non-sentient as far as we know.

Is there a third wording that we can come up with that will make everyone happy? Maybe something like: "Old Olney is a run-down and derelict town in the Capital Wasteland, which is occupied by a significant number of deathclaws." --(talk) 15:17, June 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * "Infested" is good, as written in a lower section.--Gothemasticator 15:38, June 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * I changed the first part to say "inhabited". Seems to work well. "Infested" can stay where it is too. -- 15:54, June 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * Looks good to me, thanks! --HunterZ_tiny.png(talk) 15:55, June 19, 2011 (UTC)
