Poor Judge of Pasta.
I heard it was due to be split into Punk-loving & Folk-loving.

Now I want a cisticola known for particularly over-wrought courtship displays to be renamed Emo Cisticola
Bananafishbones
Incoherently Rambling .....
I would say leave them be and move onto something else that offends people (although most don’t know what is next to offend them, until they are told….)

I heard they are very aggressive towards Mod-loving Cisticolas.

Is there anything a Cisticola can't do?
Singing, whistling, chattering, thrilling, bubbling, tinkling, wailing, churring, chirping, croaking, piping, siffling, zitting, or wing-snapping...!
And besides those, you have rock-loving and even cloud-scraping...
On the other side of the name spectrum, there is Dorst's, Levaillant's, Carruthers's, Chubb's, Hunter's,...
If you're a cisticola wanting to impress the females, would you rather introduce yourself as Cloud-scraping / bubbling, or as 'hi, my name is Chubb's'?

Another very brilliant idea!
Because of the rock-loving cisticola, one could rename more birds. It will raise interest among normal people in the often unappreciated Rock Pipit. Rock-loving ptarmigan, rock-loving partridge, rock-loving dove, rock-loving pipit, rock-loving martin, rock-loving nuthatch, rock-loving bunting and rock-loving sparrow.
And, of course, blues rock-loving thrush and alternative rock-loving thrush.
