:(ec) Ah, sorry, just noticed the link to the archived discussion given above, so the change wasn't entirely accidental. But still I don't think the 2/3 editors who made that change really understood the intent of the wording that was removed. We don't add stuff to article titles to try to make them recognizable even to people who are ignorant of the subject (we don't say [[Fred Smith (actor, you know, the fat one on Eastenders)]], or anything like that).--[[User:Kotniski|Kotniski]] ([[User talk:Kotniski|talk]]) 09:23, 21 December 2011 (UTC)
