Article will be renamed "Yangchen's predecessor"

Please do not edit this discussion.

So, in the recent discussion on whether to delete article on the unnamed fire Avatar, where most people voted in favor of keeping the article, a couple users expressed an interest in renaming the article, FireFerret in particular disliking the article having "unnamed" in its title. Since that discussion is done, if others are still interested, I hereby propose to rename the article "Unnamed fire Avatar". My own suggestion in that discussion was "Yangchen's predecessor", which drops the unwanted "unnamed". It does lack "Avatar", which is most defining characteristic of the character in the absence of a proper name, but since the new name references Yangchen, Avatar status is essentially implied. Not only that, but since it singles Yangchen out, it also narrows down to a specific person, since without context, "unnamed fire Avatar" can refer to any previous Fire Nation Avatar. If you want to get very technical, "Yangchen's predecessor" can also apply to any Avatar preceding her, in which case I suppose "Yangchen's immediate predecessor" is the most unambiguous description, but I find that unnecessarily long, and the immediate, much like Avatar, can be inferred or implied.

I agree it needs renaming. I think "Yangchen's predecessor" is alright and can't think of anything better. If I do, I'll comment, but I support this rename for now. --Tono555 Read my Fanon! 03:04, October 8, 2018 (UTC)
I also support renaming the article to "Yangchen's predecessor". Waterbending emblem Water Spout 22:09, October 8, 2018 (UTC)
