In another thread it's been demonstrated that the days of the year articles (1 January, 24 April, etc.) must be split into separate articles — one for in-universe (15 March) and one for behind the scenes info 15 March (real world).

This is because the majority of days have not been specifically mentioned in DWU narratives, and we only start articles for things that have been positively identified, seen or heard. Relevantly, we don't have year articles for years like 7 or 678 or 2609, not because they don't logically exist, but because they've never been mentioned.

So the question before us now is what dab term makes the most sense to use? The term (real world) has been put forward as logical and fairly brief. But is there another term you would prefer as shorter or better? Would (real) or (BTS) or (production) or (OOU) be an improvement?

Please post your thoughts below.


Due to the arbitrary nature of this decision, this thread is tentatively scheduled to close in one week.
