In such a case, the "XYZ" part is the name, the "responsive" is just a descriptive feature. Really, it's a spammy keyword technique, and we shouldn't allow it... but, whatever, that doesn't bother me that much.<div><br></div><div>My concern is more along the lines of "versions are not supposed to be in names". We don't allow plugins that do this. You can't make "PluginX 2.0" as a plugin name. We get submissions that do this so much that we have a form letter response to send back to them.</div><div><br></div><div>If it's an update, then it should actually update the original, not be a new one. You update the original "PluginX", not make a new entry for "PluginX 2". Calling a theme "Responsive II" or "2" or "Part Deux" or whatever you like violates this rather simple and basic principle. This is just my opinion, of course.</div><div><br></div><div>"Weaver II" was allowed to do it because he retired Weaver at the same time. No conflict, no problem. If a theme was submitted named "AwesomeTheme 1.0" and the "1.0" part was actually in the name, I would hope we would reject that as well. Version numbers should not be in names. </div><div><br></div><div>And a new entry in the directory should be treated as would any other new entry, not as an update to another entry.</div><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><div><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><div>-Otto</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div></div></font></span></div></div>
