In the debate over changing the wiki name, I know that Tangerineduel indicated his preference, along with several other users, that "Tardis Data Core" was to be represented as "TARDIS Data Core".
My moves in the past few hours to seemingly ignore that and go ahead with "Tardis Data Core" are not refutations of community will. Rather, they are merely upholding T:BOUND and T:TARDIS.
The way the applicable policy is now written, the name must be written "Tardis Data Core" because we are bound to use policy as it is currently written until such time as policy is changed.
Feel free, therefore, to use this thread to discuss why T:TARDIS is an unreasonable rule that must be rewritten.
However, simply saying "I don't like Tardis over TARDIS" is not enough. You must give a reason why that's a bad way to distinguish between the wiki and the in-universe device, especially given that our project namespace is "Tardis", not "TARDIS". Also, please make sure you have familiarised yourself with the arguments at TARDIS#Behind the scenes.
