Its description says it's a subtrope of Grammar Nazi, but it can easily be folded back into it. There are only 13 wicks and no on-page examples. My vote is to make it a redirect, so those 13 wicks don't have to be touched and can remain as an indicator of the exact flavor of Grammar Nazi in question.

Sorry for the wait, ~Shiny Cotton Candy. We had some backlog cleared away, so opened.

I'm good with making it a redirect.

Or cut and replace wicks with Grammar Nazi. We grammar nazis care about spelling too,

I am inclined to redirect. This was one of the tropes that I planned to discuss in the Wiki Tropes TRS thread once that opens.

Redirect. It can be used in slightly different context but ultimately means the same thing.

I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.

As a stickler for correct spelling and grammar, I support merging Spelling Nazi with Grammar Nazi.

Well, it looks like we have consensus. Do we need to create a crowner or something now?

I checked the amount of votes in favor of merging and redirecting and I'm positive we're well past the consensus range.

...That said, the thread has only been open for one day, so the Three-Day Rule probably still applies. We may have to wait until the 17th before making any changes.
