My custom title request for ComicBook/OneHundredBullets showing up as 100 Bullets went through, but it doesn't seem to work. All the pages that I fixed to link to the new namespace for the work still show as One Hundred Bullets.

Ōkami (Ōkami) and Ōkamiden (Ōkamiden) are broken because of the macron glitch.

Martello, that's a known problem with all multiple-word namespaces (ComicBook, WesternAnimation, etc.)

I think the solution is to enter Comicbook.One Hundred Bullets in the custom titler or something. Can we have a mod/code monkey confirm that?

Lucky Charms don't work in Fate/kaleid liner PRISMA☆ILLYA title. That's supposed to be a star.

Pee-wee's Big Adventure: I submitted a custom title request to add the apostrophe, then another one when I realised it's also meant to have a hyphen. Now the work page shows both apostrophe and hyphen, but links still show the old hyphenless custom title.

(It seems to me that this sort of thing has a tendency to happen to titles with apostrophes in, but I may just be remembering the confirming cases.)

I don't really know what custom titles are (that's when the title displayed is different from the url title?) but Beauty, Brains, and Brawn does have a title error when it displays as a wick.

Arcades Sabboth, you still should put titles in CamelCase format, all the words in them. Custom titles change the way the title is shown, usually adding non-standard symbols (punctuation, Lucky Charms, allowing a number in the name's beginning (see 108), etc.) or changing the capitalization (like un-capitalizing "And", or starting the title with a lowercase letter).
In your example, you should capitalize "and", and make a custom title that has it in lowercase.


A problem: I want to un-custom Main/Remember 11, which displays as Remember 11 when put as {{Remember 11}}. How is it done? Un-customing, I mean.

I edited it on my post, and that seems to work. It looks like both capitalized and un-capitalized urls go to the same page, which I did not realize (?). Possibly I had gotten to that page initially from a wick that was written wrong?

Déjà Vu is displaying properly on its own page, but a backslash is appearing after the title on other pages.

Bande Dessinée ({{Bande Dessinee}}) should be Bande Dessinée. The custom title thingy kerflucked before I could even typed my Custom Title request and sent it, so I couldn't re-do it.

I see Fan of Underdog being either "Fan of Underdofg" (for Camel Case) or "Fanof Underdog" (when not CamelCase).

Lyrics/Video Mismatch has a slash (i.e., Lyrics/Video Mismatch) in its "Existing Custom Display," but on the wicks themselves it does not seem to be appearing.

Not sure if it's a custom-titler thing or not, but Recap.My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic S 1 E 23 The Cutie Mark Chronicles (Recap.MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E23TheCutieMarkChronicles; the final word is typed and should be "Chronicles") is gaining a hyphen whenever it's displayed—despite the hyphen not being typed and not showing up in the edit screen—which is breaking the link.

Lady Macbeth is customtitled to read Lady MacBeth, but I pretty sure the Shakespearian character is simply called "Macbeth"; all lowercase.

[up] You would be correct. I'm pretty sure the procedure would be to submit another custom title request to put it back to the proper capitalization.

Don't Go in the Woods wicks display without an apostrophe, at least on main and discussion pages. It displays fine on the forum, oddly.

It seems that Men in Black shows "Men In Black" on the page, but "Men in Black" in links. It should be "Men In Black", right?
