Nobody seems to give a damn about this thread's topic, it seems.

Not to open up old threads again, as I assume Fast Eddie's decision is final with regards to both pages, but I thought this might specifically be worth asking about. If one of the biggest concerns arising in the Girls' Love discussion thread was not enough inbounds, this page would probably get a lot more if it was titled Yaoi Genre. Yaoi itself was a redirect to Boys' Love because it's more of an umbrella term, whereas "Boys Love" is only the genre, but with "genre" now attached to the title anyways it would probably be more accessible for English speakers as Yaoi Genre instead. It's odd, but Boys' Love, the English term, is predominately used by Japanese publishers, while Yaoi, the Japanese term, is what English publishers use to market the genre. If inbounds are what we are interested in and "genre" is in the title to narrow it down, Yaoi Genre is oddly enough the better option for this.
Just wanted to raise that point. No complaints or anything.
