Back on subject, if "Tardis Index File" ''has'' "worn out it's welcome", (and I don't think it particularly has, but I'm wrong a lot) then we need better names suggested. "Tardis Information System" is bad as per was why it was rejected in the first pace; it's "cumbersome" and unattractive. It's not a good name. And "Tardis" is just too damn simple. If we truly ''should'' gain a new name, then we need to think of one that is actually good. Otherwise, no one will back this plan up. | Back on subject, if "Tardis Index File" ''has'' "worn out it's welcome", (and I don't think it particularly has, but I'm wrong a lot) then we need better names suggested.

I do agree that Tardis Information System is quite a silly name, but Index File has obviously outstayed its welcome - it's not in the DWU and simply inventing it ourselves is, at least to my mind, ironic when we ruthlessly jettison such things elsewhere.
I can defeat my own point by saying it's just a header and hasn't proved a problem thus far, but that also goes to show how much of a non-issue changing it to something more canonically acceptable would/should be. And no, I don't want to debate canon.
Okay, I do this a lot, so if I say Cannon, it either means "valid source" or "valid ___", i.e. "This episode is canon" -> "This episode is a valid source" and "This is a cannon description" -> "This is a valid description". I mean, they're basically the same thing.
Back on subject, if "Tardis Index File" has "worn out it's welcome", (and I don't think it particularly has, but I'm wrong a lot) then we need better names suggested. "Tardis Information System" is bad as per was why it was rejected in the first pace; it's "cumbersome" and unattractive. It's not a good name. And "Tardis" is just too damn simple. If we truly should gain a new name, then we need to think of one that is actually good. Otherwise, no one will back this plan up.
