What are people's thoughts on treating Bliss as a primary topic and moving the page to [[Bliss]]? I'm not sure myself, but I just thought I'd bring it up here in the absence of any prior such discussion. She's clearly more primary than any of the other pages on the [[Bliss|disambiguation page]], none of which have appeared more than once. I guess the question is whether the concept of bliss, which at present does not have a page, would take precedence over this one? Or would bliss be better covered on a page like [[Happiness]]? The other argument would be that [[Bliss (The Starship of Theseus)]] is more searchable than [[Bliss]], and that users might not be expecting this page to be undabbed? Eager to hear what people think. [[User:Danochy|Danochy]] [[User talk:Danochy|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 09:47, 17 September 2021 (UTC)

: I definitely think that this page should be moved to [[Bliss]], especially given that obscurer characters like [[Alice]] are undabbed. [[User:Jack &#34;BtR&#34; Saxon|Jack &#34;BtR&#34; Saxon]] [[User talk:Jack &#34;BtR&#34; Saxon|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 12:05, 19 January 2023 (UTC)

Better name?

Wouldn't "Bliss (Companion)" be a better name for this article, as she appears in more than one audio story (Audio: Starship Theseus; Audio:Planet of the Ogrons) and is distinct from all the other individuals in that she is a companion of a Doctor. --IrasCignavojo 10:10, July 13, 2018 (UTC)

We use (The Starship of Theseus) because she's not the first Bliss to have an article on this wiki. It comes from her first story. (Companion) is a marker that doesn't really work, because companion to who? When was her first appearance? If her surname is revealed, then the article name will be renamed to include her surname and remove the Starship Theseus marker, but right now, it's the best marker we can use.

Primary topic?

What are people's thoughts on treating Bliss as a primary topic and moving the page to Bliss? I'm not sure myself, but I just thought I'd bring it up here in the absence of any prior such discussion. She's clearly more primary than any of the other pages on the disambiguation page, none of which have appeared more than once. I guess the question is whether the concept of bliss, which at present does not have a page, would take precedence over this one? Or would bliss be better covered on a page like Happiness? The other argument would be that Bliss (The Starship of Theseus) is more searchable than Bliss, and that users might not be expecting this page to be undabbed? Eager to hear what people think.

I definitely think that this page should be moved to Bliss, especially given that obscurer characters like Alice are undabbed. Jack "BtR" Saxon 12:05, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
