| Well, there are many cases where we use the plural form.
Not that I disagree with the chagnes... but just becuase "Listings"
end with an 's' does not make it plural.
In school, I learned that "s" *typically* indicates plural form. Let's
say that "listing" (without "s") is less confusing for people not
familiar with the subtle rules of Englisch grammar :-)
