Kimura: I think the new title is a bit more intuitive to the trope. But... could someone explain why the heck it was originally called "Did A Korean Person Die"? Obviously the original title was an example of the trope (I think), but I don't get it either way.
Mr Etaoin Shrdlu: Hmm, interesting title change. I think SPOON has been here.
Ununnilium: Moved that overly-Nattery Runaways example to He's Just Hiding, since it plays with that kind of theory.
fakename: When was this moved, anyway? I mean, it is one of the more excusable examples of switching to a really dull name, but I would like to see the relevant discussion.
Working Title: Repeated Random Reference: From YKTTW
Brickman: I just have to say, this is possibly the worst page title I've ever seen. Couldn't this be changed to, I dunno, anything else at all?
Tanto: I dunno; I kinda like it. It's not the most intuitive name, I admit, but once you've read it you'll never forget it. Which is what trope names are all about, really, if there's not an extant name in the wild.
Ununnilium: I'd change it to Did A Korean Die. The "person" is just extraneous and jarring.
Seven Seals: No it's not, it's how the original quote goes. I mean, you either make up something original or you take whatever you're naming it after literally. Tweaking the random quote you used... No. (I mean, we've got things like Comes Great Responsibility because someone wanted to type less and We Can Rule Together as it's not taken from any one source, but Did A Korean Person Die is incredibly specific.)
Yaguar: I'd like to add that I also think it's a terrible title.
OverWilliam: What about Red vs Blue's 'Puma'?
Full Time Defendent: As many of us argued in YKTTW, this is the worst titled trope in existence. Change it or GTFO.
Isn't Red Vs Blue also a web animation? I'd rather lump all the Web Original examples into one heading. —Document N

James T: I should note that 'Convergent Non Seqitur' is sitting right there in the article text, redirects here, and is a far better title (being non-specific and borrowing elegantly from the term 'convergent evolution' — surely it should be the primary article name, with the 'Korean' one grandfathering to it? ...I don't know how how trope-renaming works...
Johnny E: how does the quote relate to the trope? If it's just an example, that's not what page quotes are for, but it doesn't even seem like an example of the trope (albeit not recalling the episode in question).
