Rename?

This talk page or section has a conflict or a question that needs to be answered. Please try to help and resolve the issue by leaving a comment.

It's a little weird to be suggesting a rename for a page created so recently, but when I asked administrator Mario to add a link to this collection on the locked BJAODN main page, she used the name "Lists" instead of its actual name "List articles"—this is inconsistent with every other link on the main page. She reasoned that "Lists" would benefit from brevity, and I kind of agree with this sentiment—"List articles" is a little clunky. Regardless of this, we should either correct the link on the main page or rename this page for consistency's sake. Which will it be? SolemnStormcloud (talk) 14:28, May 21, 2024 (EDT)

When I first thought of the idea, I had initially named it in my head "Lists" too, but I had decided on "List articles" for clarity, given that these collections contain chunks of lists instead of complete lists. But if you guys think "Lists" is overall better, then I'll rename it, sure. rend (talk) (edits) 14:41, May 21, 2024 (EDT)

BTW, it looks like Mario had piped the link to this collection, so the locked article has to be edited anyway to replace the redirect. Now, that at least can be done by the Porplebot, so no big deal. rend (talk) (edits) 14:45, May 21, 2024 (EDT)

Another reason to always check the "source" of a page before you make a change, or propose one for that matter. SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA) (talk) 14:48, May 21, 2024 (EDT)

I just told Mario to update the link. Either way, I don't think this rename will hurt clarity that much. SolemnStormcloud (talk) 14:53, May 21, 2024 (EDT)

I'm not saying it will hurt clarity. SONIC123CDMANIA+&K(B&ATSA) (talk) 14:59, May 21, 2024 (EDT)

That part was for Arend, not you. SolemnStormcloud (talk) 15:07, May 21, 2024 (EDT)
