User talk:Gretelchen

I have never edited anything here, but the constantly incorrect grammar in "Der Ring der Nibelungen" prompted me to try. However I have no idea how to go about it. Therefore I just prepared one article on my user page.

This is the Problem:

The correct version is "Der Ring der Nibelungen"

Der - article, nominative masculine, singular

Ring - noun, nominative masculine, singular

der - article, genitive feminine, plural

Nibelungen, noun, feminine, plural

"des" Nibelungen would mean that the Nibelungen is singular (which it isn't) and masculine or neutral, which it isn't either.

Can anybody help in how to edit the many articles in Wikipedia that refer to the Nibelungen incorrectly as "des"? I am surprised that none of the German contributors have picked that up.
