Remove in-line cash icon?
Might not look neat, though. Compare "
14,400" vs. "14,400 cash". — Exaskliri (talk | contribs) 15:46, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
- I think the icon was left because it was used like a currency symbol ($). However, it should only be written that way where it is appropriate to do so, such as in infoboxes or tables. With article text, it is more appropriate to have the word "cash". There are many other reasons to not have icons in the middle of article text. Per the Manual of Style, we should remove that icon.

Grammar error
There is a minor but persistent grammar error in pages using this template, but I unfortunately don't understand the template well enough to fix it myself...When an item is plural, the part of the sentence describing the star count of the item sometimes drops the "a" in a way that doesn't seem grammatically sound. (For example, "They are 2-star item" seems like it should be "They are a 2-star item"). (Take the Hero Snowboots Replicas as an example of an affected page.)
The especially confusing part is that it doesn't seem entirely consistent what pages are affected by this, as some pages (such as the Orange Arrows) use the same template but don't drop the "a". I'm not sure what's causing the different behavior here, which makes it even more difficult for me to pinpoint how to fix it...So I'm bringing this to the discussion page in hopes that someone with a better understanding of the template could take care of it.
