This is something to consider in the future, and will depend on the future that the Humble Bundles take. Happy for it to stay as it is for the time being.

I'm not too fussed with the page title, but for the sake of clarity, it's worth mentioning that according to the Humble Bundle guys, there have been 13 "non-Indie" bundles (Frozenbyte Bundle, Voxatron Debut, Android bundle, Music bundle, eBook bundle, etc., none of which they count as "Humble Indie Bundles").

There's some discussion regarding including "Indie" on the Wikipedia talk page as well.

And they (Wikipedia) have even changed it to "Humble Bundle". Also, I went searching: http://www.google.com/trends/explore#q=Humble%20Indie%20Bundle%2C%20Humble%20Bundle&cmpt=q

The page clearly says that "Humble Bundle" is 10 times as popular as "Humble indie bundle". And as Cheeseness points out, there is lots of non-indie bundles.

What I don't understand is that on the talk page, Masem said, "But again, per WP:CN, there's more hits on HIB than just HB."

My view is to have the name reflect the most popular search term.. I'm not quite sure why Masem would have made that incorrect claim?
