Fact Check Failure is already a very solid redirect, I'm not sure if more really need to be added.
This was brought up recently, and there was no consensus to rename. My opinion is still the same: the usage numbers speak for themselves.

I think the reason it has so many inbounds is because of the name of the ridiculously popular anime in the title more than anything else. And Fact Check Failure just sounds like regular DNDTR.

Regulated fun - the best kind! I don't make the rules, just enforce them with an iron fist.
I see the Awesomeness.
This title has brought 2,482 people to the wiki from non-search engine links since 20th FEB '09.
So Cowboy Bebop has brought no where near as many people to the wiki as Cowboy BeBop at His Computer. It only has 1/10th of the inbounds.
This page has brought 22,658 to the wiki. 100 inbounds is good. 1000 inbounds is amazing. This is one of the most linked to pages on the site.

The fact that it's the first page that pops when you search the wiki for Cowboy Bebop may have something to do with that.

Search engines aren't factored into those numbers.

Yes, inbounds are hard links to the page, rather than what pops up on google.

Additionally, when this was recently brought up for a rename, it was pointed out that Anime examples are not even the largest category on the page. The anime category trails behind Live Action TV and Western Animation, and is about half the size of Film... all this lending little evidence to the notion that the title only resonates with Anime fans, as it's attracting examples from all over the map.
Besides, figuring out why the title is working is far less important than verifying that it is working. And this one is working very, very well for us.

There's a description. It says what the trope is about. Why change the name?
Also, first time this was brought up, it was pointed out by a journalism student that the Cowboy Bebop example was getting used at the example in courses.
I'm not sure if you will agree with me but I think this trope needs a new name. I think its confusing since "Cowboy Bebop at his Computer" does not describe in any way what this trope is about, I for one had no idea what this show was about and was really confused, even after reading the description. Well, thoughts?
