Indefinite article problem.

The Combat message I get fighting this is (as example):

You are fighting an General Hospital.

This is a general from the Unborn Army. He looks just like all the other Unborn, except he's got more stars on his uniform.

Obviously that should be "a General Hospital"; but I'm a newbie to this game, and I don't know how to report such a problem. --Quilp 13:33, 1 May 2011 (PDT)

I reported it. Seems like a new thing, I don't remember the indefinite article being there before. --Muhandes 13:37, 1 May 2011 (PDT)
