That's the official English title. The current title should be added as an alias.

I just got Joshua Starke created before I realized that there was an option for inputting 'Real name'.
Please change the article name to Colonel Starke, as that is what he is called.

As everyone that listened to the latest podcast (10-27-2009) knows that League of Legends has removed the "The Clash of Fates" part from the title. So remove it please?

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.

@Vito_Raliffe: Mods can't rename object pages, so I added the more popular spelling as an alias so people can search it properly.

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.

Never noticed it was misspelled. 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?

@Eirikr: I don't think it was intentional; probably just an oversight. Objects, concepts, and locations have always been unique. Until the redesign aliases couldn't be added to those page types either.

@LordAndrew: Yeah, because you can change aliases now it's pretty much the definition of Not A Big Deal. Hopefully that further mod power will come in a future overhaul. Until then, thanks for nudging me in the right direction.

Heavy” character page should be renamed to “Heavy Weapons Guy”

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?

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.

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".

Minnerva - Correct spelling is Minerva (this character is different from the God like creature who appears in other games like Fire Emblem).  I made a mistake when creating the page and put in an extra N. :(
 
Also, Ezio Auditore di Firenze - The correct spelling is  Ezio Auditore da Firenze (da instead of di). Thanks

Panzer General. It isn't just Panzer General, it's "Panzer General: Allied Assault." I mean, Allied Assault is on the image right there. I might understand if it wasn't right under the title.
 
Not a big deal though.

I'm sorry if its been brought up before, but all the Team Fortress 2 classes should have "the" at the beginning. 
 
Pyro, Heavy, MedicSoldier, DemomanEngineerSpySniper, and Scout, based on every video Valve has released (particularly the "Meet THE" videos), suggests that these should be the Pyro, the Medic, etc. 
 
It would also make finding them on the site much easier.

That one would have been handled some time ago if mods were able to rename objects. They can't though, so the alias is all we can hope for right now.
