Wikiword / custom title cleanup thread

Go To

The Trailing punctuation in trope custom titles thread, as well as many, many discussions over the past ten and a half years, have made it obvious that we need a centralized discussion thread for page titles. I intend for this thread to be a place to both discuss titles and request they be changed.

(If you're looking to capitalize an existing wikiword, there's a different thread for that.)

Submitted a reversion request for VideoGame.Temtem, because someone lowercased it again. The official name is Temtem, not temtem.

[up][up] Any thoughts about its related trope Heävy Mëtal Ümlaut?

Actually, This Trope Name References Itself index has a few similar custom titles.

I have no problem with Heävy Mëtal Ümlaut. Those diacritics don't affect the use of the trope title in a sentence in any meaningful way.

~Tropers/noncanadianguy submitted a custom title of

for Robin And The Seven Hoods. Denied because any articles can be moved to Robin And The 7 Hoods.

I'll bring these to the capitalization thread then, I assume this would clear the displays as well.

It won't; there's a bug in the code for that, but try anyway.

As for something that's only indirectly related to custom titles:

Creator.Aoi Yuuki is custom titled to Aoi Yūki, which is the correct spelling of her stage name in romaji. However, when she spells her name in ASCII, it's more commonly "Aoi Yuki", so her page should be at Creator.Aoi Yuki, which is currently a redirect.

Does that mean all subpages at Characters.Hololive should be moved to have numbers in the wikiword?

[up][up] Wait what? Why was "hololive Japan - Generation 6 -holoX-" rejected when "hololive Japan - Generation 6 -Holo X-" was accepted? All I did was changed the capitalization of "HoloX".

Also are there any way to move pages and their Edit History with them? Because this comment seems to suggest that numbers should be actual numbers in the page namespace.

Noticed a trailing exclamation point on Let Us Never Speak of This Again. Don’t remember that being there.

Has there been any consensus on the exclamation mark that was added to Take That!? I think it was discussed elsewhere, but I can't remember if it was seen as a good or bad addition.

Another case where a page was "moved" by custom title: Series.Buck Rogers In The Twenty Fifth Century should be Series.Buck Rogers In The25th Century.
