I have no idea how to break a custom title.

Yet another apostrophe problem with Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.

Let's just say and leave it at that.

It doesn't seem to be a custom title, but inexplicably our page for Mapletown spells it out as one word, when the page content and all media that write the title in English spells it as two words.

Seems more like you need to CamelCase it correctly, and not try to use the curly braces with the CamelCase.

If you type it as Mapletown, it'll be one word, as if you type it MapleTown. If you Wiki Word it to Maple Town, it should be correct.

It's called The Problem with Pen Island.

AFAIK there is no "real" way it's divided. Depends on the link. Map Le Town makes the article title three words. Someone didn't capitalize the T when they made the Main.Mapletown redirect, but Main.Maple Town works fine.

See also The Problem with Pen Island linked immediately above.

Edit: fixed. Just edited the redirect.

[up] This is due to a bug that has to do with the namespaces that are Wiki Words - Video Game/, Tabletop Game/, and Western Animation/. Eddie could tell you more.

Now here's a thing: I submitted a custom title for How the Grinch Stole Christmas! (the animated version) today, and it's not broken.

Maybe it's just a one-off, or maybe the CamelCase NameSpace problem has been fixed (at least for new submissions). Something to keep an eye out for, anyway.

Did you enter the namespace as WesternAnimation/ or Westernanimation/?

I don't actually remember, because my mind was on other things while I did it, but I'm pretty sure that because my mind was on other things I went with force of habit and typed it "WesternAnimation".

Memoria is currently displaying with a period in front of it for some reason, even though the custom titler says it should be normal.

I thought you could fix that by killing the custom title, then recreating it by writing the namespace without CamelCase.

Finger-Lickin' Evil. For some reason, it displays correctly in the preview, but adds an extra backlash after saving.
