Ugh. Do we really want to name this article based on spin-off material, especially when there's two schools of thought about her name? Why not just call the article The Inquisitor (as she's actually credited) and then have a discussion about her name in the Behind-the-scenes section? A move to The Inquisitor won't destroy links, so people who want to use Darkel still can, but it will reflect the most indisputable name assigned to her. CzechOut ☎ | ✍ 07:30, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
- What's even worse about the article is that it doesn't tell us specifically where the name Darkel comes from. It just says BFA: Gallifrey, which is about as helpful as saying Frobisher appears in DWM. CzechOut ☎ | ✍ 07:33, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
- Now changing this i have a problem with, i am all for official things when it comes to TV episodes and so on but characters should be reffered to by their name were possible not there title incase someone else is called the inquisitor with no other name also while big finish audios especially this series are spin offs they are officially licenced and therefore unless contradicted by the tv series this is her name Dark Lord Xander 08:18, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
- While it is 'spin-off material' Doctor Who isn't like other series where everything's clear cut between 'this-universe' and 'that-universe'. We know that the Master was once known as Koschei, the Rani was once known as Ushas and the Monk revealed as Mortimus. In the case of the Master and the Rani their actual names are revealed as being in the 'relative' past, while Mortimus' is the present (in terms of their appearance). Darkel's name is revealed as her name after her naming as 'The Inquisitor'. The precedent has been set with regard to the Monk/Mortimus that we use the most recent confirmed name. --Tangerineduel 12:41, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
