== Proposal == | == Proposal == | ||
The core part of this proposal is very straightforward: adding "unproduced" to the dab term of pages in [[:Category:Unproduced stories]], such as moving [[Lungbarrow (TV story)]] to [[Lungbarrow (unproduced TV story)]]. We already do this when a title is shared with a produced story, like [[The Talons of Weng-Chiang (unproduced TV story)]]; expanding it more broadly will be a simple quality-of-life improvement by making it clear in search results which stories were released and which ones aren't. | The core part of this proposal is very straightforward: adding "unproduced" to the dab term of pages in [[:Category:Unproduced stories]], such as moving [[Lungbarrow (TV story)]] to [[Lungbarrow (unproduced TV story)]].

As Nate summarised, there is broad support for including "unproduced" in the dab term for unproduced stories. Therefore, '''"unproduced" will now be used by default in the dab term of anything currently covered as unproduced - that is, anything currently in [[:category: | As Nate summarised, there is broad support for including "unproduced" in the dab term for unproduced stories.

Moreover, there is also relatively broad support to use "unreleased" in some form or other for stories which don't pass [[Tardis:Valid sources#Rule 3|Rule 3 of T:VS]], but for which the descriptor of ''unproduced'' would be inaccurate by some understandings of the word "produced". As there was no consensus on how to best define rules for this, I think that it would be best to make this a case by case decision to be discussed on the talk page of relevant content. Therefore, and this is something that could potentially have clearer rules discussed and formalised in a future thread, '''stories and over media may, on a case by case basis, be classed as unreleased in order to aid with accuracy and clarity. When this is done, "unreleased" should be used in the dab term'''. | Moreover, there is also relatively broad support to use "unreleased" in some form or other for stories which don't pass [[Tardis:Valid sources#Rule 3|Rule 3 of T:VS]], but for which the descriptor of ''unproduced'' would be inaccurate by some understandings of the word "produced".
