Rename discussion
Nornagest: Cut —
This serves no useful purpose.
alliterator: Aw, I wanted to show him hanging out with all the other badly named tropes that I like (well, I didn't have any opinion of
Cardinal Wolsey, but I like the other two). But that's okay. Because you left
BRIAN BLESSED in!
Citizen: Is there another namespace than Main that we could put this under and redirect to? Like the
SelfDemonstrating.The Toblerone page you made earlier, or
Darth Wiki?
alliterator: Why? Almost all the Self Demonstrating Articles are in the main namespace. Sure, this isn't exactly a trope page, but almost all of the
Just For Fun stuff is in the main namespace as well.
Citizen: Do those almost all have a twin page for the real content, like this one? That's why.
alliterator: A
Self Demonstrating Article generally doesn't need a twin page, because it describes the trope itself (except for
Trope Name and
Trope Name Injokes, which were split).
Just For Fun pages
aren't tropes though, so there's no need to split them.
Kilyle: Thank you for putting up this page. Please don't ever let this guy die. He has found a home with us, and though the trope he spawned may have moved beyond him, let him continue to live in our midst, enlivening our little wiki world.
fleb: I was firmly in the camp of "
The Toblerone's name isn't bad, it's
So Bad Its Good" until I saw this compromise in the forum. Best compromise ever.
SpiriTsunami: Okay, this renaming thing is officially out of control. Most of the time, we get by with a redirect on the old name, only we can't even do
that because of
this page. If this place weren't so
goddamn addicting I'd storm out of here in protest.
