Is there misuse? I Thought It Meant is rarely a good reason for a rename on its own.
Speaking words of fandom: let it squee, let it squee.I agree with both and . The title does sound like it's indicating extreme ignorance rather than achievement through ignorance, but there doesn't seem to be any confusion on what the trope is or any more misuse than every trope inevitably gets, so I see little point in a rename.
"In the land of the insecure, the one-balled man is king." - HavenThe title is at least relevant enough to the trope that anyone who's even taken a glance at the article knows what it is. It's better than a lot of titles we keep, at least.
Infinite Tree: an experimental storyI'm voting down the rename, personally. I think it reflects the trope well enough. Don't fix what ain't broke.
I am now known as Flyboy.Yeah, I think the current name works fine as-is.
Really from Jupiter, but not an alien."In ignorance" is valid syntax. I don't have a problem with it.
Rhymes with "Protracted."I added Achievement By Ignorance, if that helps.

"If it ain't broke, don't fix it. And even if it is broke, just ignore it and maybe it'll be sort of OK — like the environment."Achievement In Ignorance would probably the best term for it. You did X without knowing you needed to do X in the first place.
Sparkling and glittering! Jan-Ken-Pon!I parsed Achievements in Ignorance perfectly. Any signs of misuse?
Fight smart, not fair.Unless there's missue, there's no need to rename. As was pointed out above, if it ain't broke don't fix it.
I agree that a rename is likely unnecessary. I feel the name gets the idea of the trope across just fine.
Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.Ditto for no rename.
Keep it as is.
Given that every message but the first has been "don't change it", I'm calling for a lock.
Oh, and adding my vote for don't change it.
Speaking words of fandom: let it squee, let it squee.It should be singular as the main title instead of plural.

Sparkling and glittering! Jan-Ken-Pon!I think it works perfectly well either way, and "I prefer something slightly different" is not a valid argument for a rename. The default action is: we don't rename unless there's an actual problem. Would you care to do a wick check to show that the plural isn't working?
Speaking words of fandom: let it squee, let it squee.
Just a little thing that bugged me. The current title sounds like "This guy is so ignorant that he should get a medal for it." I think Achievement By Ignorance would work better.
