:We don't know what number incarnation of K'anpo this is. This is using the convention of story dabs for unnumbered incarnations (e.g. {{idab|[[Borusa (The Deadly Assassin)]]|link}}). But there are two incarnations of K'anpo in that story, so we have to give them numbers to further disambiguate them, like is usually done with separate characters like {{idab|[[Time Lord 1 (The Deadly Assassin)]]|link}} and {{idab|[[Time Lord 2 (The Deadly Assassin)]]|link}}.

Dab term
Is a dab (disambiguation) term really needed here? I checked "K'anpo Rimpoche 2" and there wasn't anything. Is there a specific policy saying that, in the case that numbering is necessary, a dab term is also required? Cookieboy 2005 ☎ 21:36, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
- We don't know what number incarnation of K'anpo this is. This is using the convention of story dabs for unnumbered incarnations (e.g. Borusa (The Deadly Assassin)). But there are two incarnations of K'anpo in that story, so we have to give them numbers to further disambiguate them, like is usually done with separate characters like Time Lord 1 (The Deadly Assassin) and Time Lord 2 (The Deadly Assassin). That said, I agree this is an awkward way of doing things, and I'd recommend checking User:NateBumber's proposal on Talk:Ansillon. Chubby Potato ☎ 22:38, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
