Line 14:
* If a work has had multiple titles over its lifespan, the work page should be created either under its original name or the name by which it is best known (if they are not the same), and all the other names it has had should be made redirects: <code><nowiki>[[Valerie]]</nowiki></code>, <code><nowiki>[[Valerie's Family]]</nowiki></code>, and <code><nowiki>[[The Hogans]]</nowiki></code> all redirect to ''[[The Hogan Family]]''.
* If a trope has different names depending on where you are, pick one of the names for the trope name and redirect the other regional names to whichever one you chose: <code><nowiki>[[Yummy Mummy]]</nowiki></code> (UK) to [[Hot Mom]] (US); or <code><nowiki>[[Fudd Flag]]</nowiki></code> (film school) to [[Conspicuously Light Patch]] (All The Tropes).
* If the trope has a real-world name used by specialists that we aren't already using as the trope name, redirect that name to the existing trope: <code><nowiki>[[Diegetic Music]]</nowiki></code> to [[Source Music]].
