Wikiword / custom title cleanup thread

Go To

The Trailing punctuation in trope custom titles thread, as well as many, many discussions over the past ten and a half years, have made it obvious that we need a centralized discussion thread for page titles. I intend for this thread to be a place to both discuss titles and request they be changed.

(If you're looking to capitalize an existing wikiword, there's a different thread for that.)

Your custom title request has been declined.

  • IGotMyWishAndReincarnatedAsTheVillainess -> I Got My Wish and Reincarnated as the Villainess (Last Boss)!

If you need to add "Last Boss" into the title, that's a page move request, as we wouldn't use a custom WikiWord for that.

Your custom title request has been declined.

If you need to add "Milo and the Gang" into the title, that's a page move request, as we wouldn't use a custom WikiWord for that.

I Got My Wish et al is expanding from 40 characters to 48, excluding the namespace; a manual move may be the best option here.

The page was somehow duplicated; I resolved it by redirecting the short title to the long one.

Rejected the custom title requests for VideoGame.Xenoblade Chronicles 1 and VideoGame.God Eater 1 because using custom titles to change a page's disambiguation text (in this case, replacing the numeral 1 with the year of release) is not allowed.

On the topic of Xenoblade Chronicles 1, the purpose of not hiding the 1 has almost certainly passed, so it might be time to change its custom title to hide it.

~Dogleader

Your custom wiki word request Aaahh Real Monsters -> Aahhh!!! Real Monsters (Video Game) will be declined. If you want to add a disambiguation, that needs a page move request first.


~The Super Blackwing 1

I am declining your requests for various Sonic Sat AM recap episodes, as you're changing the episode number. You'll need to make a page move request first.

I'll go ahead and approve of your request to revert Review to the standard form due to conflicting formatting styles. I'm sure the work pages will be disambiguated?

The two tropes have different wikiword.

So is it "re-release" or "rerelease"?

The capitalization for the former is UpdatedReRelease, which might indicate "Re-Release"...

You should submit your custom wiki word request from the page that you meant for the custom wiki word, not "Title Goes Here". Your request is declined.

[up] ~Fox J : Wikiword requests only associate themselves with the page (and associated pages that share that wiki word) from where the request is sent. Look up How to Make a Custom Title for more info.


~anthonytropey99

I'm declining your request as you're adding words not in the original wikiword. Since what you're titling is a trope, that requires some more steps, but what you're adding is completely unnecessary.

[up] Not sure what page is in question, but WikiWord is the article's unformatted name. The form is to apply formatting to page titles. It needs to match the URL. If there are letters not present in the title, the whole page needs to be moved.

These two requests have been declined:

  • CreatingNewPages -> Greasy Chicken

Were you actually trying to set custom names for those pages, or did something go wrong?
