That's not necessary or correct. Hmm.

Okay, I don't get it. If there's consensus, I can't find it anywhere. Edit ban applied to stop this craziness while we figure it out.

I already fixed the CMOA one complete with redirect.

Darkaros has been removing the [=~ format in the main anime but it appear to have been fixed.

Since the ptitle replacement system is now underway, Fast Eddie encouraged this behaviour in the now deleted thread in the forums on them as the ptitles are just system artefacts. He said to swap the titles and cutlist the ones with no inbounds once you removed the in wiki links.

He just did this, is that OK?

edit: ^ That seems to indicate so.

Yep, it was cleared up in the Edit Banned thread. He really needs to leave edit reasons.

Twas a misunderstanding that is now resolved. But please do leave edit reasons, folks. Not everyone gets the message (or, in my case, remembers, despite being a mod. /slap self).

...So is removing [=~ correct or not? I remember the Wiki Headline (Arrgh, I hate how there's no archive) that says that ptitles and [=~ tags were removed. Am I misinterpreting or did shimaspawn's reply apply to me as well? Thanks for replying.

On a side note, I tried to make the Poke Wars Series into a non "ptitle" format (with the less unwieldy name of Poke Wars) and now the accented e is not showing up. I used the customize tool. Oh yeah, the YMMV icon is gone so I had to use a work around.

How do I fix this disaster?

The customization tool isn't imediate. It'll take until one of the mods approved it. You probably don't have the page type right. Let me take a look.
