"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanBump. Now that the dust has settled, can we start sifting through those wicks?
I've already got a few of them down, but there's still 1264 to go!

Pinball cleanup threadSure, although I won't help immediately as I have some private work to do.
And the other wick cleanings in Humans Are Bastards and Refuge in Audacity.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanA-B wicks are done except A Different World. For some reason, the related to says that there's a wick on that page but I checked the page's source twice and I couldn't find it....
Macron's notesWasn't Malicious Misnaming also supposed to cover teasing? The description doesn't reflect that.
Bump. Any progress on the wick cleanup?
Pinball cleanup threadFinished A-C. Now only 1049 wicks remaining.
Also D. 959 remaining now.

"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanF and G are also done. Now 823 wicks to go.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanDid H, I and J. Now 720 to go.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanDid K-N. Now 525 to go.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanO-Q is also done. Now 429 wicks to go.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanR-S is done. Now 283 wicks to go.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanT-Z is done. Now there are only ghost wicks, an old redirect and the Ambiguity Index, which all don't get changed.

Crown Description:
Vote up for yes, down for no.
You gave ONE example, that two other tropers are fine with seeing on the Insult of Endearment page (because you imply "Maizie" is not simply an Affectionate Nickname, but rather began as an insult).
Follow the Rule of Three. You will have support if you can identify three examples that don't fit an established trope.
Edit: teasing someone is malicious, especially when we already have Hypocritical Heartwarming
