I'm listing this on behalf of Fighteer, who said in Ask The Tropers that he wanted a rename on it due to Trope Namer Syndrome. For some reason he can't post it himself.

Wicks in 195 articles.

110 inbounds. (Fighteer said he doesn't think this is too many.)

Already has Floating Limbs as a redirect. We could just migrate the page to that title and make Raymanian Limbs a redirect instead.

I did not say I couldn't do it, just that I don't have time to shepherd TRS threads.

This is a blatant violator of Trope Namer Syndrome, and as I said, there are insufficient inbounds to justify a keep on the premise that the term is widely in use outside the site.

Fighteer's just lazy. tongue

Supporting migration.

@Fighteer - Oh. I guess you were speaking metaphorically when you made that comment about bandwidth and I just didn't get it. Sorry.

+1 to rename.

Migrated the page. Someone will still need to clean up wicks, though.

Page has been updated to factor in the rename. Instead of being a Trope Namer now, Rayman has been reclassified as a Trope Codifier, since he's a well-known example. If I am wrong on that, feel free to correct me on that.

I'm starring the thread to indicate final action needed: specifically, wick cleanup.

Added note to discussion and moved it.

Locking here as done.
