Right, they haven't been licensed appearances of the word/copyright "Gallifrey". But in-universe, it's the same planet. Not implicitly — it's sheer logic that it's the same planet. I mean, what would you proposing we do, implementation-wise? "According to one account, the Homeworld was another name for Gallifrey, home to the Great Houses of the Time Lords… whereas according to another account the Homeworld was the home of the Great Houses"? There isn't actually a textual contradiction here, so I don't even know how we could possibly write such a thing if we wanted to.

The "List of Appearances" is a point on which I'm willing to talk. We could have Homeworld - list of appearances and Gallifrey - list of appearances and a single in-universe history for both; because lists of appearances are real-world pages. But in in-universe terms, valid sources say the Homeworld and Gallifrey are one. I really don't see what a feasible way of splitting them would be, let alone what the point of such a thing would be.
