Talk:Rupert Murdoch
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Rename
isn't this quite transparently a reference to Rupert Murdoch? I forget how our policies work; would it be permissible to name this page his full name, even with a "conjecture" tag, or does that info have to go into the "behind the scenes" section? NightmareofEden ☎ 01:12, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
- Who is Rupert Murdoch? If this is intended to be a reference to him, there's ample precedent to move this page to Rupert Murdoch (A letter from the Master) with a {{Conjecture}} template. 01:19, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
What do you mean "who is Rupert Murdoch"? NightmareofEden ☎ 01:29, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
- Call me sheltered, but I had no idea who Rupert Murdoch is until you brought him up. Yeah, it does seem to be a reference to him, so I'll add a rename tag now. 01:55, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
Please note that the {{Speedy rename}} tag is to be used for noncontroversial renames. If a discussion is required, as it obviously is here, then the standard {{Rename}} is used. Please read the instructions at Template:Speedy rename for what this wiki defines as "noncontroversial" thanks Shambala108 ☎ 02:53, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
- Uh, with all due respect, this is a non-controversial change, with plenty of precedent. The only reason @NightmareofEden brought it up on the talk page is because they were asking why this page wasn't at Rupert Murdoch, and the only reason it isn't was a blunder on my part as I didn't know that Rupert was meant to be a real person.
- Don't be condescending, I know how the templates work. I've used them dozens of times. Perhaps instead you could enact the change proposed as opposed to pointing out tiny little details on how users went wrong? It'd be more productive, and you'd save time, which is especially good as you have mentioned that we're all volunteers here. 04:06, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
