In Handbook: Major Periphery States and Field Manual: Periphery, this planet is continually referred to as "Gillfillan's Gold" rather than "Gillfillian's Gold". In Field Manual: Mercenaries, it's "Gilfillan's Gold". BrokenMnemonic 10:04, 14 July 2011 (UTC)

I've dug out my copy of The Periphery, 2nd Edition and this planet is listed as Gillfillan's Gold there as well. It looks to me like the planet name's wrong here on the wiki, but with a number of pages linking to it, I'm not sure if it's ok to alter it or if it'll break lots of things. I'd be grateful for advice on if/how to amend it. BrokenMnemonic 20:26, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

So to recap, H:MP & FM:P spell it with 4 Ls, while FM:M spells it with only 3. P 2nd spells it the first way. And the wiki spells it with an extraneous 'i'. BrokenMnemonic, if you could confirm my take on it and give me the page number for FM:M, while I check all possible sources, and I'll get back to you in a bit.--Revanche ^{(talk|contribs)} 20:35, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

Ok, so I confirm the spelling as you said, with FM:M apparently the outlier (I couldn't find it in that one). I even checked P 1st and FM:Mr, but as far as I can tell it's not in those titles. Since three of the 4 titles spell it 'Gillfillan' and the fourth is outdated by two of those (and it's clear there should be no third 'i'), I'll move it. Don't worry about elsewhere: all links will point to the correct spelling. We should just correct those, when we come across them. Thanks, BrokenMnemonic. Good catch.--Revanche ^{(talk|contribs)} 20:49, 16 July 2011 (UTC)
