Rename
I agree with a rename. I only used this page name because there was a redlink. Jack ☎ 18:00, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not quite sure that rename tag is correct; as I understand it, the "(in-universe)" dab is used for anything named after something from the real world which we have a page on. If this is indeed named after Ian Levine, and not a coincidence, then the dab is, I believe, correct. Aquanafrahudy 📢 🖊️ 22:39, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
- See the following passage in T:DAB IU:
- The "(in-universe)" disambiguation term should be used to dab any in-universe thing named after an out-of-universe thing
