I say do move it to Shuri, since tropers aren't allowed to have subpages.

I'm pretty sure tabs for Troper pages don't even show up on identically named works pages, and since tropers can't have subpages (as previously mentioned), I don't see why the naming would be an issue. That said, maybe we should wait for a mod to chime in on this.

Edit: I checked the history and that comment was added last year by the page creator and not a mod, and since the comment doesn't reference any policies, I don't think it should be taken as an official statement.

Another edit: As mentioned in the previously linked ATT query, there's a mod whose username is shared with a work.

138 inbounds. How many is generally considered enough that the original page should be made a redirect?

For a page that's more than a year old, 138 inbounds seems on the low end.

Move the page, make the old one a redirect, submit the redirect to the cutlist and let the mods decide if 138 is to much.

Strange. This Shuri troper was a contributor, but his edit history is blank.

It is done. Apparently the decision was to keep the redirect.
