Wow, I'm honestly surprised.

For once, people DON'T want to rename something!

I thought the rename yes/no vote already happened and it was yes.

Yes, we decided to rename. The winning names are already redirects, that's why they're bluelinked.

This is an AT crowner, not PA or SP. Given the total number of votes the leading options are almost stalemate.

Alt titles crowners don't need a 2/1 majority, but since the crowner was in stalemate shortly before it's probably good to holler for a clock, and call when the clock expires.

Did the move, had discussion moved, cutlisted stray bits, but only updated the indexes; there are 562 wicks to Anime Anatomy that need changing, but I have enough to do with Cute Shotaro Boy, so someone else will have to take those on.

Ummm, should we close this and move it to a special efforts thread?

The more common word for that would be "figure", which is repeatedly used by that article. The word "anatomy" does not appear.

Got a holler to close this, but there are still wicks to be cleaned up. Please make a Special Efforts thread or finish cleaning them up, then we'll close this.

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

I'm doing some wick fixing now. A question: what should we do with anime examples listed as aversions of Anime Anatomy? This was one of the problems with the name; it encouraged people to see aversions in anime as worth mentioning when they wouldn't otherwise, because the name created the expectation that any anime that doesn't use Anime Anatomy is doing something unique and special.

Should we just get rid of them, since it's not really a trope where aversions are necessarily significant?

I'd definitely leave aversions in the case that another related work (e.g., by the same studio, in the same continuity, or from the same manga artist) does use the trope, since that would be a significant aversion. For now, seeing as how I lack an encyclopedic knowledge of anime, I'm leaving aversions for fear of cutting such examples.

[up] It's an aversion (of Japanese censorship) if it shows the naughty bits and it's not porn / hentai. If you can rephrase it that way, that's fine.

Ah, okay. But there are listed aversions (and some NotASubversions) I've come across, and they're not all hentai and don't always mention censorship. Some might have been manga or OV As. Some could be misuse, since the context isn't always clear. I've only removed one example of misuse so far.

For starters, look at the examples on the Barbie Doll Anatomy page and Ctrl-F for "avert" or "aversion" on the anime/manga examples.

Lupin is a variant ("genitalia is drawn as the male and female gender symbols"). All of the remaining anime/manga examples on the Barbie Doll Anatomy page are non-hentai and thus can reasonably be described as aversions.
