This YKTTW has got me thinking. The Void is currently being used as a redirect for a video game called Turgor, but I think it would be much better suited as the name of this trope. It's easier to type, and it gets the meaning behind the trope much better than the current title.

Agreed that The Void should be a disambiguation page, since it's a common term for the trope known as Void Between the Worlds, an officially-used name for the game Turgor, and the name of at least one movie.

Incidentally, Turgor should be moved to the Video Game. namespace, as well.

Seems like a logical choice. I'm in favor as well.

For the record, I've only ever seen this game referred to as The Void in English-language contexts.

Um, could we add "Rename Void Between the Worlds as The Void, and add works that are called that at the bottom of that page's description." as an option.

You know, just to keep our options open.

I think Turgor should be renamed regardless of whether we make The Void a disambiguation page. Turgor is the original Russian title, but it's English name is "The Void".

I can't think of any other video games called The Void, so we could just namespace it.

Dismbig created. Looks like someone already moved Turgor.

It occurs to me that we don't have a trope for The Void in general.

Anyway, are we finished?

Waiting on a TRS slot? Finishing off one of these cleaning efforts will usually open one up.

The Void in general should probably go to YKTTW. This looks done though. Nice work.
