Also, side note, the story should be technically called A Status Upadate (with the article), since its full name is Cybermen: A Status Update and we, as I say, remove prefices.

:Hmm. It sounds like it's more a hodgepodge of ''things'' than it is any kind of unit. It's the fact that the page as I found it consistently called it "an ebook" that got me to assume it was a novel of some kind; I've never read it.
:Should the in-universe Cyber-bios not get their own pages, then, though? Since this sounds more like an annual sort of thing than a unified work.

This isn't a novel. It's primarily non-fiction, albeit with a story at the end and vaguely in-universe biographies for the Cybermen variants. Also, some games, but those don't have plot and are simple mix-and-match things, and the "behind the scenes" section is probably the largest part other than the story, for which we already a page. That said, I do agree with removing the prefix. Also, side note, the story should be technically called A Status Upadate (with the article), since its full name is Cybermen: A Status Update and we, as I say, remove prefices.

Hmm. It sounds like it's more a hodgepodge of things than it is any kind of unit. It's the fact that the page as I found it consistently called it "an ebook" that got me to assume it was a novel of some kind; I've never read it.
Should the in-universe Cyber-bios not get their own pages, then, though? Since this sounds more like an annual sort of thing than a unified work.
And what would you suggest as a dab term? --Scrooge MacDuck 18:40, August 11, 2020 (UTC)
