Talk:Thomas Daley's home

Name

While Tom is referred to as Thomas Daley in Iris Wildthyme & the Bush Offensive, from the sources about his home, he is only referred to as Tom - so, to stay true to the source material, I opted to call this page Tom's home. Epsilon (Contact me) 12:26, October 19, 2020 (UTC)

Isn't that like omitting Mel's surname on pages related to the TV series, though? -- Saxon (✉️) 14:04, October 19, 2020 (UTC)

I'd say the name needs changing anyway because there are other Toms with homes in the DWU so we might as well use his full name. --Borisashton ☎ 15:13, October 19, 2020 (UTC)

While I wouldn't mind this page being dabbed, I wouldn't want Tom's full name being mentioned on the page. It's like Gallifreyan and Homeworlder - same species, but a different name. We wouldn't have a page exclusively concerning Faction Paradox with monikers from The Deadly Assassin.

I disagree. It's more like creating a page called "Polly Wright's shoes" for her shoes in The War Machines. She wasn't known as Polly Wright until far later but there'd be no real reason to call it "Polly's shoes" instead. -- Saxon (✉️) 20:01, November 16, 2020 (UTC)

Hmmm, while I do understand that, I think, alongside my aforementioned rationale, this page should remain as "Tom's home". Look at Cleavis, for example. His first name is contradictory, despite being the same character.

That's true but there's no contradiction about Tom's surname. -- Saxon (✉️) 20:07, November 16, 2020 (UTC)

But there is a trend of these types of contradictions in Magrs' works. Just sayin'.
