Sup guys.

I've been noticing someone has been changing page names and generally messing with them, and I'm not sure how to fix it. Does anyone know how to?

For example, Drive:

https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Film/DRive

The source title has been changed to D Rive, which is fairly minor, but it's been happening all over the site. Much of the vandalism consists of changing the title to all-caps.

https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Franchise/BATMAN https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/NIGHTMAREFUEL/FILM https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AccidentalNightmarefuel https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Franchise/STARTREK https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Franchise/StarwarsExpandedUniverse

Especially with the Star Trek/Star Wars pages, a lot of the related pages have had their titles similarly changed.

Anyway, hopefully it's something simple that can be solved easily.

I believe you've met The Problem with Pen Island. Any odd capitalization will to go the proper page and assign it a weird title. It's just the way the database works.
