From character names, etc. It's clear that the YMMV "book" entries are for the Stephen King novel. CM entry is approved/entered on the "Stephen King" trope subpage as well.

I'm also not familiar with either work, however the film section on the YMMV page mentions the names Dormer, Ellie and Finch, which are mentioned on the page for the Norwegian movie, so it must be referring to that version of Insomnia.

Edit: Checked the other subpages and the same thing applies, all of the "film" sections refer to the norwegian film

^ Hm. That makes it easier. Any ideas on what the Norwegian film should be renamed as?

EDIT: I'll start working on the fic as soon as I get on my laptop. Might as well start from somewhere.

EDIT 2: OK I made the page Insomnia (Majora's Mask), corrected all the links and sent the original to the cutlist. Now I'll clear the YMMV pages and throw everything to YMMV.Insomnia Majoras Mask.

EDIT 3: Wait, did someone turn Fanfic.Insomnia into a redirect? I hope there's no issue...

EDIT 4: There was only a Headscratchers thing, not any YMMV stuff, so I moved it. Now to see what to do with the book and movie.

Yeah, that was me. With disambiguations of works we usually leave the redirects so that external links can access the new page easier.

As for the other works, I'm thinking of moving the norwegian film to Film.Insomnia 1997 and create Film.Insomnia 2002 as a redirect indicating the American remake.

Um, I sent Fanfic.Insomnia to the cutlist before I saw you made the redirect, so there might be a problem there. I don't really know how redirects work even after it was explained to me at least three times.

There isn't a problem because I don't see it in the Cut List and I don't think it should be cut.

The other moves can be requested in the page history moves thread.

In addition to ^^, I agree with moving the book to Literature.Insomnia 1994 and I don't see that a film adaptation exists for it.

Maybe I screwed up with the wikiword. I always had an issue with one word titles to the cultist for some reason.

I'll google the book again, maybe I misread something.
