I think we all know that "Eden" is a logical reference to the real-life PM "Robert Anthony Eden", but as it is not stated specifically in the episode, shouldn't this page be simply "Eden (Knock Knock)" or "Eden (Prime Minister)", until further in-universe references are found? We need to always be careful that we do not mix in-universe with real-life information.

:While I appreciate your dedication to [[T:NO RW]], | :While I appreciate your dedication to [[T:NO RW]], page titles can be a slight exception. See, we need to balance the terms of that policy against the ''other'' need to have an easily-searchable wiki. '''Eden (Knock Knock)''' would simply be too obscure to be of use, and Eden (Prime Minister) is just too long, and potentially not specific enough. | ||
:In the past, we have handled situations like this by simply using the RW first name as the preferred disambiguator to some made up (parenthetical). Then, we've added a BTS to explain that there is no explicit reference to that person in the source cited. That way, we honor the spirit of [[T:NO RW]], but concede to the practicality of this being a searchable wiki. | :In the past, we have handled situations like this by simply using the RW first name as the preferred disambiguator to some made up (parenthetical).
