Screwed up custom titles to fix.

Two buggy things I found:

1. I requested a punctuation fix on Boys' Love so that it should read like Boys' Love Genre, and it appears like that in the "existing custom title" box, but it still has the misplaced apostrophe in actual wiki appearances.

2. Bara is displaying with no spaces, yet it too shows up properly in the "existing custom title" box.

Why would Bara Genre even have a custom title? I know the page was originally just called Bara, but wouldn't a rename/retitling using standard formatting have worked just as well?

The Negima Neo redirect should be "Negima!? neo" custom title but it doesnt work.

[up] That's a HUGE can of worms that AFAIK is still being sorted through...it might get changed back, it might not.

As mentioned here, 100% Completion has been showing up on wicks as "100% Percent Completion" rather than as "100% Completion."

See its use on Pokemon Snap's page for one example (under "It's Short, So It Sucks").

[up] To clarify, The main article title is HundredPercentCompletion. It has an alt-title with 300+ wicks OneHundredPercentCompletion (normally alt-titles are just for searching.) Both titles have the same custom title, but only the main article has the problem.

Genius: The Transgression is showing with the correct punctuation on its own page, but links to it are not showing punctuation.

(Not to be confused with the redirect Genius The Transgression, which is displaying correctly.)

I believe that's an issue that's affecting every custom title'd article in a namespace with two or more words.

I didn't write any of that.

"Hello Insert Name Here" got the custom title "Hello, <Insert Name Here>". The triangle brackets and everything between them doesn't show up properly.

Hello, [Insert Name Here]

Eight Point Eight has been recustomed titled back to how it would appear in text (Eight Point Eight). However, while it appears as Eight Point Eight on the title for the trope, it still appears as 8.8 in wicks.

See also this.

Hey You Pikachu should show as Hey You, Pikachu!, and this is indeed the noted existing custom title.

Poke Park Wii should show as PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure, which it is in the page title, but wiks still show PokéPark Wii.

[up] One of those (Pokepark Wii and the version with the subtitle) should be the main title and the other should be a redirect. The shorter version shouldn't be custom-titled to the longer version.

Rhymes with "Protracted."

Why dose Take That! have an exclamation point now?

[up] Because that Catchphrase in the Ace Attorney games always uses an exclamation point, being the Trope Namer and all. Or used to. Posted too quickly, whoops.

Let's Split Up, Gang! should be displaying as Let's Split Up, Gang. (It's the approved custom title, but it isn't displaying on the wicks or on the page itself.)

Overly Long Name should be retitled to Overly Long Name. It's bad grammar to follow an adverb ending in -ly with a hyphen.

(Argument moved from the TRS thread discussing it.)

I despise hypocrisy, unless of course it is my own.

Cowboy BeBop at His Computer has become "Cowboy BeBop at his computer", apparently in an attempt to exactly imitate the spelling from the original article. While I can understand the "BeBop" (to show bad spelling), the lowercase words look just plain weird and aren't necessary.

As flagged by Robin Zimm: Mohs Scale Of Science Fiction Hardness "The Wiki adds an apostrophe to "Mohs" when the page is linked, even though the "customize title" tool shows no such apostrophe."

Mohs Scale Of Science Fiction Hardness is showing up with an extraneous apostrophe in "Mohs". Duplicate, sorry.

Stanislaw Lem shows up fine on its own page, but when linked to from other pages (or this thread, as you can see), it's screwed up. Is this something Eddie will have to fix, or is there something we can do about it?
