SubGenius Wikia Clench
Forums: Index > Dobbstalk > Change Name of Clench



This clench was named SubGenius Wikia Clench--back when this was Wikia. Before that, it was Wikicities. It's FANDOM now, but SubGenius FANDOM Clench just doesn't have the same ring to it. Sounds like a bunch of FanBoys.

What do you think about changing the Clench name to SubGenius Wiki Clench? That name will still apply no matter what FANDOM night change its name to next. I'm casting my vote:

FOR the name change. JoX the Bobtist (talk) 21:48, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

FOR doing this by consensus. Really it hasn't been Wikia since shortly after I started editing here. Really I don't like FANDOM for it anyway. Wiki sounds fine or even Wikicities to go back to the old days? Miley Spears Discordian American Princess (let's talk) 22:20, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

ABSTAIN. I don't see a need to change the name of the Clench as it is its original name. But I would have no strong objection to changing it by one letter. Decisions by consensus would be handy here, although with the contentions we've had that hasn't often worked. The logo at top would have to be changed. Pope Hilde (talk) 17:30, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

AGAINST. For all we know, Wikicities/Wikia/FANDOM might change its name again. SubGenius Wikia Clench is, as far as I can see, the original name. The logo at top would need to be changed as mentioned above. If you go to https://subgenius.fandom.com/, it goes to https://subgenius.fandom.com/wiki/SubGenius_Wikia_Clench so that would need to be changed by FANDOM. But the biggest thing is that it's called "SubGenius Wikia Clench" on several other websites, both in and out of FANDOM. You're looking at a lot of work getting all those changed. Elwood P.

We have one vote for, one vote against, and one vote for doing this by consensus (not counting the abstention). On that basis, the motion does not pass. Any other ideas, tell me here. Pope Hilde (talk) 17:31, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
