Looks okay to me. I was able to view 104 out 104. I wonder what you did differently. I clicked the link in your post above then clicked history at the top of the page.

I'm not sure - I was unable to find an edit from Feb for a troper that I banned.

You know, I can't really disagree with the reasoning here, but it almost feels like you're trying to white-wash TV Trope's history.

And what are we going to do with all the just bugs me icons?

I oppose this rename.

The IJBM namespace was the last place we could express our dissatisfaction with things, and renaming it to "headscratchers" to make it clear that we can't is just not cool.

Because clearly showing the slightest bit of dissatisfaction with anything is the bad for the wiki.

Why I am afraid of fences.

You want to complain? Go to Darth Wiki.

He who fights bronies should see to itthat he himself does not become a brony. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, Pinkie Pie gazes Also

My only issue with the rename is that we all have to go hunt down and rewatch the pages under the new heading.

My point was that complaining should be kept off the main wiki. A sentiment apparantly shared by the people running the site.

Darth wiki is NOT for complaining.

Then we need a place where we can complain. Trying to stop complaining is like the police tying to stop drugs, it just isn't going to work.

If the place for complaining is removed, all the complainers will migrate to the forums and the rest of the wiki, and that spells more moderation work.

The problem is, no one who is new to the wiki is going to be able to find that place. It gets no mention anywhere save the occasional forum signature, and wiki editors who aren't part of the forums won't know it exists.

There is no reason the wiki needs a place for complaining. If people want to complain, they can do it elsewhere.

Just Bugs Me was never supposed to be for complaining. As a Just Bugs Me goer myself, I always found these people very annoying. I aways went to that pages so I could see people post Fridge Logic of my favorite works and how the fans would try to explain. Complains for the sake of complain were eyesore and get in the way of the purpose of the page (complain that contains Fridge Logic are fair game, though). I am glad with the change.

I am not glad with the new icon, however. To bland.tongue

PS:Also, we do have a place for complainants. The review section can be used just for that.

Alright, someone did not think this name change through. Sentences are being rendered as "You know, this development Headscratchers." Tv Tropes is beginning to look a bit like a loony bin.

So is the bug picture going to be changed?
Yeah, the bug icon plus the name "headscratchers" evokes "lice" even more.

There is a difference between criticism and whining.
As far as the Internet is concerned? The difference is "If I agree with this complaint, it's criticism; if I don't, it's whining."

We seem to be evolving into that weird uncle that insists that he's "edgy" while drinking a cold, hard glass of milk, eating white bread, and reading Garfield.
