The problem

So. When you want to access a page for an issue of a magazine, there's generally a simple formula: Prefix + Issue + XXX. For instance DWM Issue 100, DWA Issue 3, DWMS Summer 1993. Why, then, when you want to access an issue of Battles in Time is it Doctor Who: Battles in Time Issue 61? Shouldn't all these pages be moved to BIT Issue XXX?

I don't think you'd have to go back and manually change existing links (though how many are there, really?) But I think for consistency, it needs to work like the rest of the magazines. CzechOut | 17:52, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
