Nitpicking the article name

Upon reviewing documents and files from SAIL, I have found that the name "Super Foonly" is pretty consistently in use there. Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 11:30, 7 November 2024 (CET)

Your call. (Did you want me to do the move, clean up the links, etc? I'm happy to, if you want me to.) The Usenet message from Dave Dyer uses "Superfoonly", so that form is not without precedent, and is probably better known now; but those other things you just found are closer to the original source, and do seem to show that was indeed the original form.
I will add a note to the page, about how the written form of the name changed. Jnc (talk) 12:27, 7 November 2024 (CET)
I'm in favor of a renaming. Hard to say which is more popular now; I did a Google search for both terms and got 5 pages worth for "superfoonly" but many more pages for "super foonly". Larsbrinkhoff (talk) 13:36, 7 November 2024 (CET)
