Talk:Doctor Who (TV story): Difference between revisions

::Is there a bulletin board where such changes can be posted? I've no objection to the move (especially as I just did a move regarding [[Doctor Who in an Exciting Adventure with the Daleks]] with similar rationale), but not being aware tha a change had occured, I've probably created a number of redirect links not realizing it had been changed.

:::No board I'm aware of, though I do think we could stand to have a more formalized system of move proposals/debates, as on MemoryAlpha.  However, the solution here was to establish redirects, so you could call it whatever you wanted to and you'd still get here.  This article can be accessed by about ten different variations on the title.  I'm sure whatever links you created are fine.  Redirects aren't "bad" in and of themselves; they're sometimes quite useful, as with a case like this.  Actually, the [[Doctor Who in an Exciting Adventure with the Daleks]] is a bit different to this situation, in that one of the actual, copyrighted names for that work now leads to a disambig page.  That's unavoidable in that situation, because of the similarly named [[Dr. Who and the Daleks]].  Most users aren't going to know that [[Doctor Who and the Daleks]] will take them to the book, but [[Dr. Who and the Daleks]] will lead them to the film.  So the need for a disambig there is greater than the need for [[Doctor Who and the Daleks]] to redirect.  This is precisely the opposite situation; tons of names leading unambiguously to exactly the same place.  '''[[User:CzechOut|<span style="background:blue;color:white">Czech</span><span style="background:red;color:white">Out</span>]]'''  [[User talk:CzechOut|☎]] | [[Special:Contributions/CzechOut|<font size="+1">✍</font>]] 05:20, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
