Line 39:
Bring it up in the [[Forum:Trope Talk|Trope Talk forum]]. '''Include your reasons for thinking it is broken in the opening post.''' Threads begun without reasons or supporting evidence will be summarily nuked.
=== What happens after you bring it up
First of all: As long as there is no consensus to rename, you should leave the name be. Consensus does not mean a simple majority. While there's no hard-and-fast rule for what constitutes consensus, for renames we generally look for at least a 2:1 ratio in favor -- that is, twice as many people think it should be changed as think it shouldn't. However, an alternative titles crowner does not need any particular ratio: the most popular title with more supports than opposes wins.
