1) Why is it not relevant that the name
to:
1) Why is it not relevant that the name \"Mal\" is short for \"The Malevolent One\"? Especially for a trope like RageBreakingPoint? The name \"Mal\", by itself--or any other character name, for that matter--means nothing to readers who aren\'t familiar with the work or its parent, and assuming familiarity with the work violates the \"[[Administrivia/HowToWriteAnExample Simplify for Non-fans]]\" rule. And why on Earth was the text \"named Mal\" changed to \"by the name of Mal\"? This is less concise while giving no additional information, and so violates ClearConciseWitty.

The derivation of \"Mal\" was placed in a Note because it\'s information that people familiar with \'\'WesternAnimation/TotalDrama\'\' Season 5 already know, but is informative to people who aren\'t.

2) The SplitPersonality example did not, in fact, imply that Mike has more personalities than he does in canon, because (a) the word \"several\" can mean anything more than \"two or three\"; and (b) Mike\'s canonical alters do, in fact, cover a wide range of personality types. Granted, the example did merely duplicate a trope in the parent work.
