AVID:Requests for Comment/Bring back the Nicknames subheading
Support
- Support HEAR ME OUT-
Okay, so I don't support bringing back the nicknames in their previous form ("Ultra Majestic Structure XIII" and so on) but I do support bringing back popular/official nicknames (like "The V of Doom" and all the THX trailer names). I think putting them in Trivia or Legacy would just get muddled and confusing. NancerAVID (talk) 22:15, 29 December 2022 (UTC) NancerAVID
- I Support Nancer's idea. This makes for a good alt proposal. V of Doom, Super Scary Face, S from Hell, and Treetown and other extremely popular community nicknames like that should be official. (• USER TALK! •) 22:20, 29 December 2022 (UTC)

- The 2007-2013 Treehouse Originals logo. It was featured on the "AVID Dictionary" thingamajig listing what certain logos mean "etc like listing cheesy logos and moog synth" (• USER TALK! •) 02:35, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
- Lmao none of us had even heard of that one (name change coming soon) 02:36, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
- I thought Treetown was official, at least for the bumpers. (• USER TALK! •) 21:33, 30 December 2022 (UTC)

Support While many of the previous nicknames were cluttered, there are certain cases where we usually refer to a logo by its nickname (e.g. "V of Doom" versus "1976 Viacom logo," all THX trailers, etc.). I would support limited use of the Nickname subheading for these prominent cases. I would not, however, make it a mandatory inclusion. I think most of the random, poor quality nicknames were created by editors looking for something, anything, to fill out the field. Thatvhstapeguy (talk) 21:02, 31 December 2022 (UTC)

- Oppose since Charles Darwin proposed the theory of evolution. As per my reasoning left on your talk page. (name change coming soon) 13:27, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
Extreme Oppose. Where the heck is the reasoning? (• USER TALK! •) 16:50, 29 December 2022 (UTC)- Oppose I have no idea why this request should even be entertained. This proposal is blank, save for the voting sections. --Blad (talk • contribs • global) 18:23, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
- Stronger than Oppose - There's a reason we ditched those. Also, almost none of the nicknames were even used by the community anyway. · Talk · Edits 18:33, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose How are people gonna recognize the names of scary logos like the V of Doom, or the S from Hell, or the Mask of Guo Xiang. Or actually they would... 13:21 28 December 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose Give us a reason why. It was removed for being too subjective. BaldiBasicsFan (talk) 21:22, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose As much as I liked it, I think it's best we do without. Gilby1385 (talk) 21:45, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose Why? SomeGuy (name change coming soon) (talk) 00:02, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose What we have been doing on pages like THX and Paramount Animation works WAY better and has caused far less misuse. AlmightyKingPrawn (talk) 02:51, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose Obviously not. We already removed nicknames in the logo descriptions. PokeRapMonster (talk) 02:05, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose. The system we're using right now (header for official nicknames, Trivia/Legacy for notable unofficial ones) works way better and is less subjective. Dominicmgm (talk) 06:32, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose We removed nicknames for a reason and they are not coming back in any way, shape, or from! Sickminecraft45 (talk) 16:05, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
