Hmmm... I feel bad for [[Osgood (The Seeds of Death)]] now. His first name was also given (in a novelisation) as Harry, but his page is not called [[Harry Osgood]], whereas [[Tom Osgood]]'s is because the name Tom was given in a book. Is there some policy making novelisations of lesser importance than original books? (Still on-topic for Osgood, hopefully.)

Secondly, this Tom is not a bad guy. He wouldn't want to get in a way. If his first name is kept, I think SOTO's argument from above explains why Osgood is not Tom Osgood. But even if we rename his page to [[Osgood (Dæmons)]] or remove his first name mentally, I think they can be nicely distinguished by [[Osgood (UNIT sergeant)]] and [[Osgood (UNIT scientist)]]. Tom Osgood actually appears in the cast as Sgt. Osgood (according to ''[[The Dæmons (TV story)|The Dæmons]]''). And his supposed daughter (as per Moffat's implicit intension) is not a sergeant, right?

Hmmm... I feel bad for Osgood (The Seeds of Death) now. His first name was also given (in a novelisation) as Harry, but his page is not called Harry Osgood, whereas Tom Osgood's is because the name Tom was given in a book. Is there some policy making novelisations of lesser importance than original books? (Still on-topic for Osgood, hopefully.)

Secondly, this Tom is not a bad guy. He wouldn't want to get in a way. If his first name is kept, I think SOTO's argument from above explains why Osgood is not Tom Osgood. But even if we rename his page to Osgood (Dæmons) or remove his first name mentally, I think they can be nicely distinguished by Osgood (UNIT sergeant) and Osgood (UNIT scientist). Tom Osgood actually appears in the cast as Sgt. Osgood (according to The Dæmons). And his supposed daughter (as per Moffat's implicit intension) is not a sergeant, right?
