Arago has a custom title of "AR∀GO: City of London Police's Special Crimes Investigator", but it's displaying as Arago on other pages. (The title is fine on its own page.)

There needs to be some way to block editors who use non-compliant code pages.

"Sorry I Left The BGM On" shows up in wicks as Sorry, I Left the BGM On despite not being the page's title. It must have been customed titled and then un-customed titled, possibly as part of a botched attempt to get rid of the "I" in the title.

Rene Goscinny displays on its own pages, but the wicks display as the un customized title. See Asterix

Play Station 3 is displaying as Playstation 2. I wrote it PlayStation3. The custom title is saying it should be Playstation 3.

I could've sworn I saw Magic A Is Magic A getting displayed as Magic AIs Magic A" or somesuch, but it doesn't seem to be doing that now. (Figured it out: somebody spelled it Magic AIS Magic A, capital 's')

I've been noticing in general a lot of custom titles don't seem to display properly. Why is this? For example, the custom title will show up on the page, but not in links.

[up] There's a variety of reasons. One that's known and being worked on is that the custom title formatter currently doesn't work 100% with titles in multi-word namespaces (WesternAnimation/, VideoGame/, etc.).

Now that If You Know What I Mean has been renamed, can the custom title be changed from Nudge Nudge to Lampshaded Double Entendre? Note: I'm not saying that it's screwed up, I'm just posting here so a mod can see it.

[up]I thought we'd stopped using custom titles for renames. I think that change would just mess us the sentences it's misused in even further. They would go from: "He gave it to her, If You Know What I Mean" to "He gave it to her, Lampshaded Double Entendre", which makes no sense. What needs to be done is a massive wick cleanup and possibly making If You Know What Imean a deliberate red link like No. Just... No, but not what you're suggesting.

[up]I think Eddie made it a deliberate red link, but I accidentally screwed it up. You also have a good point, if it gets red linked again it shouldn't look like the new title is red.

I think this belongs in this thread here:

The trope "robotic psychopath" is rendered as "robotic psycho path", e.g. Robotic Psycho Path.

Can someone please fix this?

That's just based on the link you followed to the page, and has nothing to do with custom titles. (That little issue predates them.)

Robotic Psychopath works just fine.

When I list "Sorry I Left The BGM On" on a work's page, it autocorrects to "Left the Background Music On" on the work's page, even though the trope page itself says "Sorry I Left The BGM On, redirected from Left the Background Music On". What's going on?

See? Sorry, I Left the BGM On <—I typed "Sorry I Left The BGM On" here, I swear.

This is correct. The dialog-like title is being corrected. It also removes that ridiculous abbreviation.

<uses magic powers to break the rules of reality and boink Eddie on the head>

The point is that the custom title you chose isn't showing on the main trope page itself. Also, I believe that it was decided not to use the custom title thing for trope renames?

So...will no one mind if I swap that one with the redirect, since that's the general renaming policy that everyone who is not the Eddie of Rapidity (who didn't participate) seemed to agree on when we discussed it?

It solves the problem.

The custom display for I'll Kill You! does not show up in non-ptitle links, even though a custom display is set for it.

Is it possible for No. Just... No to show up as No Just No and X Just X to show up as X Just X again so that people will think that they are not articles? I can't do it my self because the custom title tool thinks that they aren't there.

That's what the faux-redlink is for.
