RE: Octupus plural
Hi, "octopuses" is the standard English plural for octopus. "Octopi" is a quirky alternative spelling that is also used, but much less. I see no reason for you to be changing the standard plural to a quirky alternative.

Sources:
 * Any dictionary. They all list octopuses as the standard, and octopi as an alternative. Webster, dictionary.com, Oxford. Note how Oxford doesn't even list octopi at all!
 * Grammarist: "Octopuses is far more common than octopi in edited writing of all kinds, including scientific writing."
 * Grammarly: "Many people don’t like octopi, and you will rarely see it in edited works, but it does occasionally appear."

I hope this was informative! Heddy (talk) 17:36, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
