Should the Cybus Cybermen page really have the title of "Cybermen (Pete's World)"? I think it's better to just have the title be Cybus Cybermen by now because that is what most people refer to them as. I haven't heard anyone call them Pete's World Cybermen and i don't think anyone would confuse the Cybus Cybermen for the Original Cybermen. Rawrgoaway 16:47, June 13, 2010 (UTC)

Cybus Cybermen would be the most apprpriate name as these Cybermen are could say are a brand. --Vitas 04:47, June 14, 2010 (UTC)

Well i'm not sure if i'm allowed to change something like that. I mean i don't think i could and i wouldn't want to upset anyone.Rawrgoaway 21:36, June 14, 2010 (UTC)

It really can't go to Cybus Cybermen, as that term is not in-universe. They've never been called that at any time on screen. The "Pete's World" disambig at least has the virtue of using a term that has some on-screen provenance. It might, however, be equally acceptable to call them "Cybermen (Cybus Industries)", using the same logic. Still, I think we might want to wait until after series 5 concludes before making any changes. We may well get some kind of definition from the 11th Doctor that we didn't get from the 10th.

You're right about that actually. My theory is that they're just going to have the Cybus Cybermen become just "The Cybermen" because from the preview picture of one of the Doctor Who Adventure games with the Cyberman who doesn't have the Cybus logo on his chest it seems like they're just going to take over the mantle of being the regular cybermen. Maybe the leftover Cybus Cybermen create new Cybermen and leave out the Cybus logo because it is essentially pointless to them.Rawrgoaway 06:59, June 18, 2010 (UTC)
