== Apparati?! ==

In English, the plural of ''apparatus'' is ''apparatuses''.
If you must be pedantic and insist that it's a Latin word, then get it right. The plural is ''apparatus'', not ''apparati''. It's a fourth-declension noun, not second-declension masculine. See [[Latin_declension#Fourth_declension_.28u.29|Latin 4th declension]]

I won't bother editing the article; it'll only get reversed.

This is wrong, but I'm too busy to fix it now.

The example at the bottom is correct though so overall the article is fine. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 164.107.165.53 (talkcontribs)

14-Apr-2013: I followed the link for short circuit, but it took me to short circuit in a computer programming context, not a power systems context. I don't know how to fix this, but it would be great if someone could... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.52.185.71 (talk) 12:00, 14 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

[1]  Done (Although, I couldn't find any article specifically about short-circuit evaluation in power systems, so I just linked it to short circuit) Dalba (talk) 11:37, 17 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Apparati?!

In English, the plural of apparatus is apparatuses. If you must be pedantic and insist that it's a Latin word, then get it right. The plural is apparatus, not apparati. It's a fourth-declension noun, not second-declension masculine. See Latin 4th declension

I won't bother editing the article; it'll only get reversed.
