I don't get the Wik reference, no, but it didn't come off of anything he did on the site. We discussed what he liked and someone came up with a title. Even if it is clever, it didn't come about organically and I don't like it.

But what does Also Also mean?
And we still can't use, seeing as he suggested it himself.

Nominate everyone to stop talking about Isa titles and then we can give him one later in the future if we need to but seriously guys stop

I know. By doing that, I showed my opinion that these titles are bad and the discussion was going nowhere at the speed of light.

"Also also" is part of the ongoing reference to Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

Equi = Horse (as in equine). Not sure if there's more to it.

There's a fine line between bickering and constructive title discussion, guys. Keep your focus.

So Amrun is sporting a fancy new title
Killed the Radio Star
, but why:

First and foremost is This post where Amrun states that she likes this title. It's not the only thing that matters, but when a community title clicks with the user that is a huge marker to me that a title describes that person well.

Secondly it's a very easy link to make: Who killed the radio star? Video. Video -> Youtube, bam. It's not a long convoluted in-joke, it's accessible.

I think it's a very cute little story, and Amrun's response to it is very indicative of her (to me, at least, and evidently to a few others).

Finally, a good marker that this isn't a horrible decision is that most of the argument was not "title-worthiness", but more about exactly what form the story should take (think back to Thor's title if you don't get why this matters). People evidently support Amrun receiving a title, people evidently support the incident being funny, I just had to choose the punchline.

To those who came up with ideas that weren't selected, I'd just like to thank you for making that one an awesomely interactive discussion, rather than general bitching and sniping.
