I wnated to ask about the disambiguation titles, because I think it's a bit bizzare that when you search for a story title, it sometimes sends you to something else of the same name. I think that story titles should be the primary use of a search, and the other uses should be reached through a disambig page, or link in the episode page. The only exceptions would be if:
1) The story title is that of a villain, or species (e.g Dalek (TV story) and probably Robot (TV story))
2) The title is the same for two different stories (e.g Shada (TV story) and Shada (audio release))
3) The title is a person, or character (e.g Marco Polo (TV story))
If it is a planet (as in Logopolis), or similar, then the story should take the main use. At the very least, it should be a disambig page - and not to the planet page. Jack's the man - 21:17, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
