==Using apgcodes as LifeWiki titles==
With the recent creation of [[xs15_3lkia4z32]], I was wondering if this page could be similarly renamed to the pattern's apgcode. In my opinion, this has two advantages over the present name:
* The pentadecathlon.com archives aren't very popular nowadays and don't have most of the patterns discovered in the current decade, such as the loafer.
* Mark Niemiec's webpage has similar systematic names, using a different numbering scheme to disambiguate patterns (although not this one in particular).
Would it be okay if I moved this page to [[xp2_caabaiczw32]]?

Shouldn't unnamed objects have names? Seriously. Pseudo-random combinations of bland numbers tell almost nothing about its structure.

(P. S. This one should be named "Long Beacon", in my opinion, as it has a beacon as a rotor and a, well, long stator that stabilizes itself.)

Enumeration system clarification

18P2.471

"18" Is the population of the oscillator

"P2" is the period

".471" normally means the 471st oscillator discovered of that period and population, but depends on the enumeration system.
