Needs new name[[edit source]]
I didn't even notice that Doctor Who (USA) had in fact been moved to Doctor Who (1984). That leaves us with the problem of what this prefix should be called. See Talk:Doctor Who (IDW) for a discussion that's already underway about this problem. Do we want DWMC or DWMVL to be the prefix for this article and DWIDW to be the prefix for the other? Do we want to opt for the brevity and unambiguous accuracy of COMIC and DW08? Or do we want something else entirely? Whatever the prefixes, they should both follow the same format, and be an obvious contraction of the full name of the article. We should also not move the current prefixes, but hand edit linking articles to reflect the new prefix. Redirections of prefixes is, I think, quite a self-defeating proposition.
