Chinese Stealth Armor
If you'll read through the discussion page for that article, you'll see that we're well aware of the use of "hei gui" as a racial slur. However, that info is irrelevant to the article about the armor. There's no indication that the slur is intended by the name of the armor, and there's no reason to court controversy and argument by noting it in the article.

As you wish. However, not to come the old soldier over you, but.... I do have a B.A. in Chinese language and quite a number of Chinese friends. When I showed this to two or three of them, their reaction was incredulous. I'm not sure that ignoring it on the main page is the best way to go. It's too deliberate an "error" (probably some juvenile attempt at humor by a junior member of the development team) and should be exposed to make sure that it is corrected, something that would take very little effort to do. 174.6.51.17 06:07, July 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * The Vault articles aren't the place to post things in hopes that Bethesda will make changes in response. Try posting in Beth's forums if that is your goal. You can even try PMing one of their moderators. As for The Vault, the racial slur just isn't relevant to the article content. As I stated above, there's no secondary or corroborative evidence leading us to believe that the slur is intentional. Let's just leave it on the talk page.--Gothemasticator 06:32, July 9, 2010 (UTC)
