American Girl's Club in Paris → American Girls' Club in Paris – Grammatical correction, as it was a club for several girls. Had it been for men it would have been the American Men's Club, not the American Man's club. However, we should follow the spelling used by the club, if we can ascertain it. Our most reliable source appears to be Dennison, which is in a peer-reviewed journal and has American Girls' Club. The Good Housekeeping source (1907) has American Girl's Club. The Columbia University source has American Girls Club, but it does not look as reliable as Dennison. A brief Google search has not revealed anything more definitive. In the absence of a definitive source we should follow our most reliable source and the rules of grammar. Verbcatcher (talk) 00:55, 24 October 2019 (UTC)
