Probably cases of double-markup like this: {{TheChessmaster}}. Which would just make it show up as TheChessmaster, which then has to be fixed.

{{Or This}}, which could just as easily be OrThis.

Yeah, that's annoying, but as I understand it, you're supposed to use the curly brackets
for pluralizing singular tropes like {{The Chessmaster}}s to get The Chessmasters.

[up] In which case they're not gratuitous curly brackets, they're just curly brackets. wink

It's also used to force capitalization. Agree or not, it makes it a fucking bitch to ctrl+f something I'm looking to replace.

Check off "Ignore case", or don't check off the "Match case" button. Whichever way your browser does it.

Where we're searching for BigGuyAndRustyTheBoyRobot. Yep, putting everything into CamelCase where possible and adding custom titles where needed is a good thing for control-f.

I've learned not to use the full name. I generally just searched for Bigguyan which brought up most.

You could probably find any use pretty easily with just "Rusty" in most cases.

Tried that, it worked okay as long as Venture Brothers wasn't on the page.
