typo: rendezvous

  Fixed here, although it's incorrect on the actual page, so the mods may change it back to match the page title.

    Lately the situation is much better and the alternative non-editorialized titles are tolerated (if we ignore the infamous J002E3 case). Even, a few times, dang asked for better alternative titles when the original titles were bad.

      Yes and no. I've seen many, many changes that are clearly "right" in some sense and from some point of view. I've also seen quite a few changes that I've thought were odd to say the least, and a few that I thought were down-right perverse. In short, I freely agree that most of the changes are good. However, there are some that are, to my thinking, genuinely bad, and I find that I really can't predict when either will happen. This engenders a sense of frustration and helplessness, and occasionally that boils over. My apologies for the tone - please accept it as an indication that while there are many things that have improved, there is still an underlying sense that some things are still wrong.
