===Support===
#{{Support|Strong}} for official names ''only''. Most station idents also have official campaign names as well. ''[[User:Logohub|<span style="font-size: 120%;"><span style="font-family:'serif';">Logohub</span></span>]]'' ([[User talk:Logohub|talk]]) 10:16, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
:exactly how I was envisioning it. Unofficial names that are iconic enough, as mentioned, should be in the legacy section [[User:MinistrycraftEntertainment|MinistrycraftEntertainment]] ([[User talk:MinistrycraftEntertainment|talk]]) 12:07, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
#{{Support|Strongest}} How to get the nicknames section back in a good way. Of course some users did miss having nicknames whenever official or notable, so I think this might work out for those. [[User:BaldiBasicsFan|BaldiBasicsFan]] ([[User talk:BaldiBasicsFan|talk]]) 20:27, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
:This proposal exclusively for official nicknames, not unofficial ones that are notable enough. Those should stay in the legacy section [[File:MinistrycraftEntertainment-EternityEntertainmentsignature.jpg|50px|link=User:MinistrycraftEntertainment]] (name change coming soon) 23:19, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
# {{Support|Strongest}} per Logohub. Agree with MinistrycraftEntertainment that any unofficial names that are very well-known (such as S from Hell) should go on Legacy.

# {{Support|Strong}} Per everyone else. Please. [[File:Kris_Signature_JAN_2022.png|50px|link=User:KrisValdespino]] 01:46, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
# [[File:Symbol full support vote.svg|22px]] '''''Full support''''' Sure Nickname removals were justified for nonsensical ones but this may have been bad news for official logo names that also got removed. This proposal will be a good middle ground for those. <span style="font-family:'AVID Sans';">Compooper</span> 02:31, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
# {{Support|Strongest}} Yet again, per quota above - for official names only. [[User:Solarstrike|Solarstrike]] ([[User talk:Solarstrike|talk]]) 03:20, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
# {{Support|Strongest}} Hell yes, per everyone else [[File:CalvinWilkerson-transformed.png|300px|link=User:CalvinWilkerson]]([[User talk:CalvinWilkerson|The Third Place]]) 06:03, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
# {{Support|Strongest}} '''''in the entire galaxy'''''. YES! OFFICIAL NICKNAMES LIKE S FROM HELL AND DEEP NOTE! YES! [[File:Charlie fiddlesticks signature.png|200px|link=User:CharlieFiddlesticks]] ([[User talk:CharlieFiddlesticks|lets talks]]) 03:31, 25 November 2022 (UTC)

#{{comment}} I think that there should be a field for official names. And there should be a recommendation for official names to be referenced, whenever possible. --[[User:Pingu|Pingu]] ([[User talk:Pingu|talk]]) 02:13, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
