Spelling
The subtitles on this YouTube video spell the name of these creatures as "Mantrap" (capitalised and sans hyphen). I assume the uncapitalised and hyphenated form is what is used in Unleashed, but can't check myself due to geographic constraints, and I don't know whether that's further up the ladder in some formalised order of precedence.

- Yeah in Unleashed it was hyphenated and uncapitalised in the subs. See Talk:Maestro for my last subtitle-bound headache and that there seems to be some vague acceptance that iPlayer subs have greater weight - CodeAndGin | 🗨 | 14:51, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- If it moves the needle at all, the capitalised and hyphenless rendering is used again in the subtitles of the non-BTS-but-also-non-narrative Here There Be Monsters, as well as in the title of Mantraps or Slug Hugs (the other alias in the latter is probably irrelevant for our coverage, at least for now).

"Looks like" box
I noticed on the page for slug, there's a "looks like" box to the right. If I knew how to add the Man-traps on myself, I'd have done it. I just think it'd be a good idea. Can anyone edit those boxes? If so, how do you find them via the search bar so I can help in future? Thefartydoctor ☎ 22:08, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- Okay, so, I tried that, but it ran into issues. It seems that {{Looks like}} only displays up to 15 instances, and Slugs already have 15 instances. As to how to find uses of {{Looks like}}, use the "what links here" tool on the template page. Najawin ☎ 22:42, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
