Naming/Dab terms

Not sure about this one, he's only referenced in passing. (And it's also not clear what the other name would be.) If someone can find some other sources that mention Galen so he becomes the primary topic that would really just simplify things tremendously. Najawin 04:56, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

A search reveals that the only other currently-documented source to mention the real world Galen is Prisoners of Fate. The name is used as an alias by Adric Traken which the Doctor recognises as being based on the Roman physician. Our story page redlinks Galen of Pergamon so that's a possibility for a clearer name. --Borisashton 11:35, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
Wikipedia just calls him Galen. We should maybe move Galen to Galen (planet) to make room for this page. Two mentions mean that he is more deserving of primary status than the Galen planet. WarDocFan12 13:54, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
Except the planet has actually appeared and the physician has only been mentioned. What we could do is move to Claudius Galenus or Aelius Galenus, with {{Conjecture}} and redirects. Aquanafrahudy 📢 🖊️ 13:58, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
