Tbh I wouldn’t mind making Saitama, Genos, Tatsumaki and Fubuki’s profiles just having real names with their hero names redirecting to it while Child Emperor, Metal Bat, Atomic Samurai and Metal Knight are all just their hero names with their real names being redirects.

I mean, that's what it was originally, right?

Tatsumaki and Fubuki’s profiles originally used their hero names, but aside from them, yeah.

I mean I get it but
If you search them using their hero name they'll show up near the top of the search results regardless if their profile is formatted right and fully filled out

AKM seems not too active, but Antvasima seems back from his vacation. I can ping him and give him simplified explanations.
@Antvasima If you're busy I understand especially after you got back from your vacation. But most of the community wishes to change Saitama (Caped Baldy) back to simply Saitama given that no one uses "Caped Baldy" unlike basically every other Hero in the Association. And most other staff wouldn't mind him and possibly a few other Heroes.

As for my thoughts, I feel as if Saitama and maybe Genos are the only ones who stick to just having their names; though I'm more neutral in the latter's case because other S-Class heroes do call Genos by his Hero name and it is legit a good one (Demon Cyborg). But Terrible Tornado and Hellish Blizzard are both names even they refer to each other as. I'd prefer to keep those. And it's especially people with really short first names such as Bad who should keep Metal Bat given the search engine doesn't often detect pages with only 3 characters.

I don't really see the issue with it. If it is a notability thing, sure, change it for Saitama, but I don't think other pages need to be altered.

I agree.

I don't see the issue at all, you type saitama and the name comes up so it being not as notable doesn't interfere with anything whatsoever
it's just that the OP thinks it's annoying for some reason, while other people think that it's not

It's generally bad practice to put a name that's rarely used as the title of a page, is all.
The most popular and common canon name should really take precedent, otherwise we'd have pages with twenty different names in the title.
- 13,903
- 5,404
well that's not really a slippery slope that applies here because
caped baldy is funny, so people will want to keep it, and technically speaking it's consistent with the verse

well I don't think popularity is a good reason, since it being popular doesn't explain why we can't have both, which is how it currently is

No problem.
See here:

Saitama (サイタマ?) is a human from Z-City who; through rigorous (sort of) training broke through his human limiters and achieved unbelievable strength and abilities. Never breaking a sweat, the name One Punch Man is fitting for the effortless wins Saitama has achieved through the series. Never...

In my opinionationings, the pages should be named according to the most well known or familiar name.
For example, when you think of genos, you call him genos, not demon cyborg. There's literally no one who calls him demon cyborg. Same with saitama, nobody calls him anything other than saitama unironically.
However take metal bat. No one on this earth calls his ass "bad". In fact, I only discovered his name was bad yesterday when I searched him on the wiki. I literally thought his sister was insulting him when she was calling him "brother bad/ bad onichan".
