Are we sure the name is 'Tzim Sha'? not 'Tsim' or 'Dzim'?Opdagon ☎ 14:38, October 8, 2018 (UTC)
- Subtitles say Tzim-Sha. Xx-connor-xX ☎ 15:02, October 8, 2018 (UTC)
According to the official Doctor Who Twitter account, it is T'zim-Sha (here) Lady Junky 12:08, October 10, 2018 (UTC)
- Please read Thread:128198 where it states that only admins can move pages but also tells you what to do if you think a page needs renaming. Shambala108 ☎ 15:18, October 10, 2018 (UTC)
- Did not see that one, sorry. But it does not change that "Tzim-Sha" is wrong. I mean, from what I understood, it only comes from the subtitles (which could be misspelled). Meanwhile, the official Twitter account AND the official website for the series spells his name as "T'zim-Sha". The current name has no real basis, while we have official sources for the series using a different name. Lady Junky 15:36, October 10, 2018 (UTC)
- Generally, we consider closed captioning superior to marketing elements. But, really, the ending credits are even higher in the hierarchy, because those have to be signed off by the production team. So given the dispute between lesser sources, I'm going to move the article to Tim Shaw and leave redirects for the varying non-EN names.
czechout<staff /> ☎ ✍ 16:13: Wed 10 Oct 2018- Additionally, I should point out that the move you suggested isn't, technically, possible. There's a flaw in FANDOM's search engine that makes it unlikely for anything that has an apostrophe in the second position to be easily found by our auto-suggestion code. Note the difference in the search when you enter "Tzim" versus when you try "T'zim". (For readers in the future, this may be corrected. But in the here and now, when this character is most relevant to Doctor Who, it's better to go with a name that our search engine can more easily find.)

But, is his name pronounced dzim, tsim, or tuzim? Opdagon ☎ 06:51, October 11, 2018 (UTC)
