^ Septi writes in 48 "crowner for the supertrope". What is he referring to?

My sense from reading this discussion is that it was aiming not only for a rename but also for expanding the current trope into a supertrope. If that isn't the case, then the current crowner still applies to the current trope.

"Jonesy" fails One Mario Limit (thanks to 6teen among others) and is not a name immediately associated with the trope-naming work. So seeing a rename here is a good thing.

Based on the winning name, I assume we are using the "original reveals the imposter is a fake" definition.

Since no one has done the move yet, I'll go do the honors.

Okay, move is done and noted in the right places. I also nixed parts of the description that pointed to the old name. There's less than 100 wicks to migrate, so it shouldn't take that long.

The page itself needs cleaning. There are shoehorned examples to remove.

Cleaning does need to be done before locking.

Just weeded out a few that didn't follow the definition, and moved the Laconic over.

There's some more work to be done for the page, but I gave it a head start.

Down to 47 46 now. The Sandbox at the top I've made a blank page for and submitted to the cutlist, and the Italian page I didn't touch because a) I don't know Italian, and b) I'm not really sure how the translation pages work anyway.

The Italian page is taken care of.

Updated 10 crosswicks. It helps that B and C are close to another.

At this moment, wicks needing to be changed are now in the single digits. I also stamped out misuses in the process.

Edit: And wicks are finished. Is the page good enough to stand?

Both have been cutlisted. Once the cuts are confirmed, this one can be locked.

I've declined the requests - such redirects generally stay around after a rename so that people searching with the old name can find the trope. The dialoguey redirect isn't too bad either.

Closing now.
