Really Anal page titling
So, here I am, nosying around the BIC, when I encounter this template. It has links to all the individual BIC pages, but they're all phrased as "SUBURB Building information centre", when surely they should be either "SUBURB/Building Information centre" or, preferably "Building Information Centre/SUBURB". Would it be in order to whip through these and set up moves to one of the aforementioned locations, and change page links as such?--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 18:52, 15 May 2010 (BST)
- Just make one mass A/MR post.

- There's no reason for sysops to request moves on A/MR unless they're unsure of it, or have a conflict of interest or something. I think "Building Information Centre/SUBURB" is probably the way to go -- boxy talk • teh rulz 02:20 16 May 2010 (BST)
- Sounds good to me. However, if we do alter the titles I strongly recommend we stick with the "Center" spelling, as all of the other "X Information Center" pages are currently using it. ~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 06:34, 16 May 2010 (BST)
- I agree with the spelling issue, and also with the "Building Information Center/Suburb" re-ordering. Getting in touch with Rooster might not be a bad idea, since he could probably use a bot to make the changes to the suburb pages (they'll all need to be modified individually, since the link is coded into each page, rather than being part of a template). —Aichon— 06:52, 16 May 2010 (BST)
- If he's active, that wouldn't be a bad idea, but I'm fine doing it if he isn't. Oh yeah, and I just spelt in "centre" in the post above because that's how I spell it, so we'd use the current system when we actually do it. :P --Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 11:20, 16 May 2010 (BST)

- You are really being anal about this. This template was created AFTER several users and groups created most of these suburb BIC pages, and they followed a simple schem to name these pages. There is little use to change this naming scheme now, several years after its being used. --People's Commissar Hagnat [talk] [wcdz] 03:04, 16 May 2010 (BST)
- Although I sort of agree, that isn't really a reason not to do this. Basically, if someone wants to put in the effort for this, they can. It makes sense, but it's just an awful lot of effort for one character change :( -- 01:41, 17 May 2010 (BST)
- Eight Months, 100s of edits, 100 characters changed. The project is completed.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 23:01, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
