How do you change the name of a mechanics reference?

I've discovered I've misnamed one of my mechanics reference entries; how do I change it?
 
Just edit it and change the name then click save. Make sure you read and understand the prompt that follows.
 
Articles and Article Categories can be renamed from their edit screens.

If you need to rename a Snippet Type that's in-use in its Category, you need to duplicate the Category, do your fixes in the duplicate, use the options menu (F7) for the Category to move all of the Articles to the new Category, then delete the old one. (Alternatively, duplicate, move everything, change the original, move everything back, delete the temp one.)

Also, this is the forum for tutorials and videos. Questions should go in the Discussions forum.
 
It's not snippet types or articles I'm renaming, it's the mechanics reference box in the top left hand corner. See this picture:

It's specifically the entry "Murder of Crows" which needs changing to something more general.
 
At the end of the list of views you'll find a pair small icons. One is for topic views and one is for article views. Murder of Crows is an article view so click the one for article views and select manage views. In the dialog box that opens simply edit the name of the view to be whatever you want.
