for the record 'BackAlleyBrawler' IS consistent with the naming convention, as we have been using the rednames as they appear in the dev digest. --Sleepy Kitty 02:28, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

  1. Well, I don't agree with using the forum name unless there is no in-game signature character associated with the developer. Everyone else whose in-game signature character has spaces, has spaces. His in-game character is Back Alley Brawler. The only reason he is BAB (and not B A B) on the forum is because of the character limit.
  2. [name] (Developer) tag was missing. (There are no other signature-character devs that do not have (Developer) in the namespace.)
  3. Besides which, wiki has "Castle" and not "_Castle_", and the article has lacked underscores even back when he had underscores on the forum. So there is precedence. (Please note: I am conveniently ignoring the fact that aside from tricks to force it, wiki does not do beginning and ending underscores.)
Mostly, I changed it because it looks tacky to have only a single signature-character developer with an inconsistent-looking naming convention (because "that's the way it looks in the dev digest" doesn't look very consistent from an end-user), since all the rest have their in-game characters, spaces included, followed by "(Developer)". --Aggelakis 05:14, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
>.> you'll note that I didn't revert your changes, just put a note in the talk page. Sometimes stylistic trumps correctness, this is one of those times we'll let it since most ppl won't care or even notice. o,o but now there's a note as to why the stylistic ended up being used and maybe someone in a year or twos time will see it and not 'correct' the page. I might nutty, but its one of the things I do often. *hands Aggelakis a Blankie Salvage.png and Mystic Pillow Salvage.png*--Sleepy Kitty 06:04, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
