Just caught someone trying to wick Needs Wiki Magic Love after we just got the wick count cleared.

Should we declare PRLC on it? That will mean cutting, but the Administrivia/ page can catch inbounds.

I've seen users link the Administrivia page instead, so that may not be enough, but we'll see.

I'll ask the rest of the staff.

Role Reprisal is still being used despite being renamed to Role Reprise. Fixed one instance just now; at least there's 6 wicks to move.

Despite being renamed to Person as Verb, "I Pulled a Weird Al" still has wicks.

I still find a bunch of wicks to Reality Ensues here and there.

Number one fan of characters that appear only once and ultimately were a recurring character either in disguise or trying a new image.

[up]There's a whole thread on that - Use (and misuse) across the wiki is huge, and even with the updated definition, sorting out correct examples isn't as simple as it seems.

Had to deal with some wicks that popped up for Alcohol Is Poison. One of them is misuse that led to its rename a while ago.

Should we cut? The naming is too vague to keep IMO.

Morguing this thread in favor of the older Rename/Transplant Wick Cleaning thread because they cover the same scope.
