Talk:Doomsday
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Doomsday DAB
- Not sure where such an observation should be made but I've seen a page that linked Doomsday (the episode) in a mention of Doomsday (the concept).
- I don't know where exactly the issue lies, whether its the original link that shouldn't exist, or THIS Doomsday (blank) page that shouldn't link to Doomsday (the episode), or if the original link should link to the yet-nonexistant Doomsday (the concept) page.
- (I refer to Doomsday (concept) and Doomsday (disambiguation) interchangeably since either would be a desirable destination for the original link and neither exist anyway.)
- All I know is that something somewhere needs correcting. Since I don't know how to resolve the issue, I'll just leave the matter into more capable hands.

- Per our naming policies, the television story gets a dab term (TV story in this case) whereas the in-universe concept doesn't need a dab term unless/ until another in-universe use of the name comes up. See Tardis:Naming conventions and the other policy pages listed on that article for a guideline on how we name pages on this wiki. Shambala108 ☎ 00:14, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
- So, if I understand correctly: the problem actually lies in what I've been calling the "original link" from the page Doomsday weapon, which links to Doomsday (blank) but should either not exist or link to Doomsday (disambiguation)? Noob Sunrider ☎ 02:03, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
