A couple of Fire Emblem characters:

Elice - The alias "Ellis" should be added.

Caeda - The aliases "Sheeda" and "Shiida" should be added.

For both of these characters, the aliases refer to English romanizations of their Japanese names as used in Japan, and the alias "Shiida" was used in the U.S. release of Super Smash Bros. Brawl when Caeda appeared in the game as a sticker.  Furthermore, both characters came from the original Fire Emblem game released in 1990, and in that time, the Japanese romanizations/fan translations of their names became commonplace in the west.

Can an alias be added to a person? If so, JP Kellams should be an alias for Jean Pierre Kellams. Most people will know him as JP.

I think the staff have been busy with the Giant Bomb and Comic Vine redesigns and the wiki mods are busy with whatever it is they do. :P

The game Clutch is known as Armageddon Riders in Russia.  Please add that as an alias. Thanks! :D

Done. The alias field for object and concept pages is not restricted (not yet at least), so anyone can do it.

It will appear in the results if you search for Final Fantasy Tactics, so an alias is unnecessary."
I know, but  It wasn't really a search issue.  That's the name it came with back in 98. Without the subtitle.

Use releases for that. Aliases are used to help people find the page they're looking for.

Super Smash Bros Brawl has an alias for Brothers, But the franchise and the two other games in the series do not have an alias for Brothers


Also, is there a way for N + to show up when you search for it? Because as is, you cant find it in the drop-down search bar

The character + can't be searched no matter what you do. But maybe an alias of "N Plus" would help with searches.

I dunno about this one but.....

Titan Studios (which are the current Dev's for Fat Princess) were recently known as DarkStar Studios before bought up by Epic Games China.

I'm not sure how the rules go as for Developer Aliases but I don't think that there should be two seperate pages for Titan Studios and Darkstar.

I think Titan Studios should simply have an alias of "Darkstar", and that the DarkStar page should be deleted.

Got some WarioWare-related alias changes here:

WarioWare (franchise): Made in Wario
WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!: Made in Wario and WarioWare, Inc.: Minigame Mania
WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$!:Atsumare!! Made in Wario
WarioWare: Touched!: Sawaru Made in Wario
WarioWare: Twisted!:
Mawaru Made in Wario
WarioWare: Smooth Moves: 
Odoru Made in Wario

There's a couple of corrections needed too:
WarioWare: Snapped!:
"Utsusu! Made in Wario!" shouldn't have exclamation marks in the Japanese alias.
The
WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$ page needs an exclamation mark at the end of it's name, like the GBA game.

Currently Winds of Nostalgio is just down as Nostalgio. It needs aliases for Nostalgia, Winds of Nostalgia, and Winds of Nostalgio.

And the Super Smash Bros Brawl aliases i discussed havent been added yet.

Just took care of a lot of these, although any requests without a proper link were ignored. Please include links when asking for an alias to be added. Also, things like "EZMHD" and "MHFU" were not added as aliases...I'm not sure we want to get into the practice of adding acronyms for every game, so unless you can make a strong case for your acronym being added as an alias it probably won't be.

Same goes for "Air-Sea Battle Add the alias Target Fun, just an alias to it"...that's not really sufficient justification for the addition of an alias.

Thanks to everyone for being patient, I know some of the other moderators have been checking this thread but I try to check it myself at least once a week or so.
