	I just noticed that the DQ3 skin is refered everywhere on the wiki as "Erdrick". I can understand the Hero default skin to be refered as Luminary rather than Eleven, but, as Erdrick is a title that isn't unique to Arusu in the DQ series, wouldn't it be better to use his actual name for his skin rather than his title? Plus, the word Erdrick itself is already used in the game for the Mii Swordfighter DQ2 costume.

			:[[Talk:Hero/Archive 1\|Extremely long story short,]] we went with "Erdrick" because that's the most widely-known moniker for the ''DQIII'' Hero, and we'd decided on our names based on input from the ''Dragon Quest'' community before Sakurai's video came out. Arusu was essentially unknown to overseas audiences before Sakurai broke it out for the presentation (as far as I can tell it was only used in ''DQIII''{{'}}s radio drama adaptation), and by then we'd already locked ours in. It's preferable for us to go with the term that's more commonly used even if it's not "official"; as another example, see "[[tech]]" versus "fall break". (As an aside, the Erdrick Mii Costume is [https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0318/2649/products/51JRAimMwNL_large.jpg based on the ''DQIII'' hero]; it's just that other characters have worn the same armor.) ~ [[User:Serena Strawberry\|<span style="color: #e68;">'''Serena Strawberry'''</span>]] ([[User talk:Serena Strawberry\|talk]]) 19:29, February 18, 2020 (EST)
