Create an Enum like

enum Status
{
One,
Two
}

I didn't look at the code for the rule, but I presume it uses the letter 's' to
determine if a word is plural.

Test case published here:
https://github.com/Iristyle/mono-tools/commit/f71d893a08b0493b4d54b7a5a595ba2a6d714d32

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Write code like above - run Gendarme.
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
Violation of rule.

Expected Results:  
No violation.

Hanselman recently covered noun pluralization in a blog post here:

And there is some simple / dated code available here:
