	::: I have to very strongly disagree with the moving of this page. Prioritising episode credits over both promotional material ''and'' her actual televised appearances just doesn't make any sense at all. She is never referred to as "Shirley Bingham" except in the credits, which are ''not'' in-universe sources, and is only referred to in in-universe sources as "Shirley" and "Shirley Anne Bingham". {{User:Aquanafrahudy/Sig}} 15:46, 29 January 2024 (UTC)		::: I have to very strongly disagree with the moving of this page.

			:: We have three editors saying otherwise against just two, so the majority rule, as it stands currently, is in favour of going by the credits. As for why she is never called "Shirley Bingham" in the episodes, it's fairly common to introduce yourself with your full name, even if you don't go by your middle name. Say I introduce myself as "John James Smith" to you, it doesn't mean I go by "John-James"; similiary, until ''The Giggle'', it was unclear if Shirley went by "Shirley-Anne", which is what her introduction indicated, and subsequently users started referring to her as "Shirley Anne" on her page, in the same vein as Sarah Jane using her middle name in conjunction with her forename. As User:Jack "BtR" Saxon has pointed out, having the page name reflect her credited name of Shirley Bingham prevents just confusion, and aligns with other official releases like DVD Bonus Features.
