Nightvision Goggles needs to be changed to Night Vision Goggles. The rest of the article uses the second spelling, and a Google search will show that it is by far the most common and accepted use.

Here's a few:
G18C > Glock 18 (reason: the G stands for Glock, and the c is just a variation of the Glock 18 model.)
AT4 > AT-4 (reason: missing the dash)
M79 grenade launcher > M79 Grenade Launcher (reason: grenade and launcher aren't capitalized)
UMP > UMP .45 (reason: add the caliber)

Schwarzverse needs to be renamed to Schwarzwelt. Giving it Schwarzverse as an alias would be a help too, since that's how it was known in English for months.
Astarte also needs to be renamed to Asherah, I mixed my goddesses up.

Probably because when "with" is typed into the search it's completely ignored. But anyway, renaming the concept has been discussed along with deleting it. I think everyone agrees that it should be renamed, and it would have been if it was possible. Well, it is technically possible. But only for staff. Mods cannot rename concepts, objects, or locations.

"Mods cannot rename concepts, objects, or locations. For this reason, I'd suggest perhaps not creating such pages until an official English name is provided. Or create the pages with the name known at the time, but bug a staff member about it every time a new name is available.

@LordAndrew: Yes, I'll take the latter choice. I knew that concepts couldn't be renamed, but not objects and locations. But that also reminded me that it's one of those instances where users can give aliases themselves, so kudos for that.
It's a bit silly that mods too cannot rename these things, as with the above Games with Steam Achievements concept being a perfect example. But hey, whatever...or something?

" “ Heavy” character page should be renamed to “Heavy Weapons Guy”There's absolutely nothing wrong with having a record of all requests. It's not like it's hard to tell which requests have and haven't been handled. The main problem is simply that they haven't been handled recently.
I would also delete all requests that have been completed, so we can keep this topic neat and orderly. We don't wont a thousand pages here, do we?

"“ Heavy” character page should be renamed to “Heavy Weapons Guy”The "Heavy" is only ever referred to as "Heavy Weapons Guy" on one occasion, when he introduces himself in the Meet the Heavy video. In every other instance he is referred to as the "Heavy", including by the in-game menus. The Heavy page should NOT be renamed "Heavy Weapons Guy".
