The current description used for differentiating these two generic bandanas is
very ambiguous with the most obvious difference being the single and double tail
ends which I believe would benefit from being mentioned:-

[p=2543]

 
Part No: 18927  Name: Minifigure, Headgear Hat, Cloth Wrap / Bandana with Double Tail in Back
* 
18927 Minifigure, Headgear Hat, Cloth Wrap / Bandana with Double Tail in Back
Parts: Minifigure, Headgear

Therefore can I suggest naming them Single and Double Tail End respectively.
I know the single tail end is essentially two tail ends merged together in the
mold design but I don't think this really matters but if this is a problem
you could instead use the term merged tail end and split tail end or something
to that effect?

They may be molded into the single end, but you just pointed out the reason why
this should be rejected. Both designs technically have 2 ends, it does not matter
if they form a single tail end or a double tail end.

The benefits of pointing out this key difference far outweigh the need of being
over specific with the finer details of the mold especially as it is not even
very noticeable unless you look very hard at those tail ends besides I had already
mentioned that one of them could be named split tail ends with merged tail ends
for the single tail mold design?

It is far more important that people don't mistake the two molds especially
when looking at the image for 2543 where someone could believe one of the two
tail ends is out of view and think its the correct entry for the split tail end

Let me know if the adjusted names do not work for your needs. Otherwise, I will
consider this completed.
