Forum:Early discussion about disambiguating TV story page titles
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Template:Forum archives header Should each TV story's page title end with something like " (TV Story)"? My reasoning for this is many stories may have the same title as an in-universe topic which warrants its own article. The same is true for Doctor Who stories in other media (novels, audios, etc) as well as titles of spin-off series (Faction Paradox, Torchwood). Torchwood 11:38, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
- Many of the TV story pages already do have (TV Story) after the name for the very reason you suggest. Howevever, I think there may be some titles (for books and other stories as well) that need to be changed. I'm not sure that there would be a need to play (TV Story) after every TV title though. I can't imagine that the likes of Terror of the Zygons is going to crop up elswhere. --Mantrid 12:20, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
- I have actually made a number of re-directs from "X (TV story)" to "X". simply to reduce the laborious typing out of the name every time. for instance, I think the system in place now works fine already and if two stories end up having the same name, we can always re-name one or both of them. Tooth and Claw has a Doctor Who Magazine comics namesake, for example, but an entry for the story doesn't exist, once an editor creates that story, we can just call it Tooth and Claw (Comics story). --***Stardizzy*** 12:55, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
