Celebratory Funeral and Happy Funeral, the two runner-ups, can both be redirects.
I think that'd be a good idea.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessSounds good.
Calling in favor of Cheerful Funeral.
she/her | TRS needs your help! | Contributor of Trope ReportIt seems to me that Fun In The Funeral can be moved to the new name with little-no changes to the page.
"It's just a show; I should really just relax"I agree.
Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.Agreed, though can we ax the quote? It's huge, and in mobile it looks even longer.
Look at all that shiny stuff ain't they prettyYeah, I agree that it's too long. That might be better suited to the page quote thread, though, unless TRS projects can be used to remove quotes. That's at least been done on Image Pickin', so maybe TRS could as well, though I don't think I've seen that happen during the three or so years I've been on TRS.
(Side note: Not on mobile, since I don't edit or post on mobile, but I do have a small notebook PC.)

Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.I mean we're moving the page. It seems pointlessly bureaucratic to require the quote thread for this, especially since they'd say to cut it down our remove it anyway.
Look at all that shiny stuff ain't they prettyFair enough.
Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.I'm good to remove it.
Contains 20% less fat than the leading value brand!The one on the quotes page is good but equally long...
"It's just a show; I should really just relax"I'd frankly be fine with no quote at all.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessI think it works with no quotes. But as I suggested above, I think the folk song line "Wasn't it the truth I tell you, lots of fun at Finnegan's wake" would be a good quote.
The mods have moved the page, once we reach consensus on the quote we can close this thread.
Link to TRS threads in project mode here.I de-wicked Fun In The Funeral, and added a reference to Cheerful Funeral to its more malicious sister trope, Last Disrespects.
EDIT: Will someone create the redirects Celebratory Funeral and Happy Funeral?

Let's just agree to pull the quote that's on there and close...
Agree.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessI did some crosswicking and it's now up to 32 wicks- enough to remove from Pages Needing Wicks?
"It's just a show; I should really just relax"Page quotes:
And that will make me smile a smile, and have a laugh quite hearty,
To hear you say, the bugger's dead, let's have ourselves a party.
I want people to gather
meet new people
have a laugh, a dance, meet a loved one.
I want people to have free drink all night.
Welt the floor, your trotters shake;
Wasn't it the truth I told you?
Lots of fun at Finnegan's wake!
I like the second or third one.
"It's just a show; I should really just relax"The third is my favorite. It conveys the "fun". The other two are good, too.
As I suggested before, Finnegan's Wake has my vote, but the other two aren't bad either.
I like the second one, myself.

Crown Description:
The TRS thread for Cheerful Funeral (formerly Fun In The Funeral) has suggested changing the page quote. What should it be?
Cheerful Funeral is the clear winner at this point, and I was wondering if we could make the runner-up (Celebratory Funeral) a redirect, as it's a more indicative name for the concept and it is within consensus range (12 votes, net +6 votes, 3:1 ratio). I think it would help tropers understand at a glance that this isn't merely a funeral in which people are cheery but an intentionally cheery funeral.
