I don't know if this is feasible, but it would be pretty handy to have a crowner icon at the top of the page. Thoughts?

You're going to have to clarify. Do you mean the Crowners for Awesome, Funny, Heartwarming, etc. should be given an icon like Laconic, Troper Tales, should get an icon of the top of pages that have one? Or rename/rework Crowners should get such on trope pages under consideration? Or both?

The biggest problem is probably that any page with an associated crowning might have more than one crowner. I'm not sure the wiki can handle that.
You must agree, my plan is sheer elegance in its simplicity!

I guess just one icon linking to that title's main crowner page, which would then branch out into Crowning Moment Of Awesome and the like. Which would, of course, require creating a main crowner page, which is why I'm asking if it's feasible to begin with. It would be a handy tool, though, especially for those tropes with rename and page action crowners.

There's no rule forcing crowners to have the same name as the article they are about. Until that is enforced, or some other method of associating them is developed, we're SOL on automation.

There's no rule, but as far as I am aware, most people plug the article name in the crowner when they make it. Also, Crowning Moments for the same title are automatically connected.

The system doesn't know you right now, so no post button for you.
You need to Get Known to get one of those.
