You've made a solid suggestion as to what to change the page to, but you haven't provided any evidence that it needs to be changed in the first place.
"I think the name is bad" and "I think the page is broken" aren't enough by themselves, to justify changing a page that has 186 wicks and 3600+ inbound links. By both of those standards, it's not merely "not broken" it's thriving.
Additionally, the three sections that you are calling separate tropes are three criteria that a magic system must meet to be Vancian. To use a food metaphor I'm rather fond of, Vancian Magic is analogous to a Ham-and-Cheese omelet. To have it, you have to have ham, eggs, and cheese; you have to have the eggs scrambled and the ham and cheese folded into them; and you have to have fried the whole thing. If you don't meet all of those criteria, you have something, but it is not a ham-and-cheese omelet.
Declining to open.

...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.
Ok besides the really really really horrible name, there are really 3 specific and different tropes here and the page even goes so far as list the three types. These 3 types are quite common, like every videogame with magic uses at least 1 of them, and not always the same one but the page only has 186 wicks.
There are plenty of examples that cover only 1-2 aspects of this trope.
I propose splitting the trope into
And rename this for a supertrope of just pages/works with specific rules on Magic.
