Entry into contest for new name for T.R.O.L.L.

[edit]

Mike, since you want suggestions for a new name for T.R.O.L.L., I've got one (however, it's another acronym): S.L.O.W.D.O.W.N. That being: Stressful Litigation On Wikipedia, Detailed On Wikipedia's Newsletter. Alternately, if you remove the 's' and add a 'the', you get The L.O.W.D.O.W.N. Corny, yes, but at least I've tried.

Alternatively, "The arbitration report". Simple, professional, and not tacky. Rebecca 03:29, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nifty names

[edit]

When choosing nifty names, please take into account that many non-native people would love to be able to read this without having to interpret the poetic nature of unexplained acronyms. --06:43, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
