Name

Surely this should follow wiki conventions and be named after the singular rather then plural? So "The Whisper Men" becomes "Whisper Man" ScotchAutopilot 19:33, May 18, 2013 (UTC)

the thing is, in the episode, they were never, ever called Whisper Man. All the rhymes, they were all known as The Whisper Men, so me, the one who created this page, thinks that it should be the same. Although I did make the same mistake creating the Cybermite page, I think I have made the right choice. StevieGLiverpool 21:22, May 18, 2013 (UTC)

Not to put too fine a point on it, but, um, you haven't. T:NAMING governs the naming of our articles, and it always preferences the singular over the plural, except in the case of "mass nouns". Quite clearly, it's possible to count Whisper Men, so we go with the singular.
