What to do about this bad name: Take 2.: Record Of Loudness War

What's a cassette tape?

But seriously, this is indeed an awful name. All for renaming it.

Currently 15 yeas, 7 nays.

I think we can call this.

Called.

So do we just want to move this to Loudness War?

Yeah. Let's just do a redirect swap.

The pre-existing term sounds good to me.

Works for me.

Pre-existing term is quick and easy.

Yes, I'll move to skip the alt-titles crowner, if that's all right.

I've moved and redirected the page, moved and cutlisted its subpages and asked for a moderator to move the discussion. All that remains is to fix the wicks.

Could have used a holler indicating that you were going ahead sans crowner. I think this one is fine, being the existing term.

Discussion moved. Please fix all the indexes before making the old page a redirect: missed Just For Pun and Music Tropes, now fixed. There was a note on the trope page referring to the old name. I've dropped that bit; it's often not just a cut and paste job: check all the text and the examples to see if they still make sense after the move.

There's also this page, not sure what to do about it.

I think we should just cut that. It doesn't really aid in understanding the trope any better and I don't think it's very funny.

I'm all for cutting it as well.

The sliding scale seems to have nothing to do with the trope.

Agreed. No YKTTW. More suited to a lighthearted forum post than a wiki page. I see it's on the Cut List.

The page has been renamed and the wicks have been moved.

Can we lock this or am I forgetting something?

Discussion page needs to be moved, unless you already hollered to have that done.

Renamed Tropes ?

Just added a note on Renamed Tropes and the disscussion page was already moved.

And the thread; done. Nice work everyone, this is a high-value rename IMO. Locking.
