Talk:Doc Holliday: Difference between revisions

=== A new suggestion: let's not ===

"Doctor" is an honorific. If the character was called "Doctor Holliday", [[T:HONOR]] would tell us to name the page [[Holliday]] (or perhaps [[Holliday (The Gunfighters)]]). An example of this is [[Talk:Marple]]. But this character is not called "Doctor Holliday". He is called "Doc Holliday". "Doc" is neither a title nor an honorific but {{w|Doc (nickname)|a nickname}}. Far be it from me, a lowly editor, to attempt to infer or apply this wiki's policies, but it appears that nicknames are often allowed in page titles, eg [[Amy Pond]] and [[Sam Jones]]. So I don't think it's a problem to {{w|Doc Holliday|follow Wikipedia's lead}} and keep the most used and most recognizable name - "Doc Holliday" - as the title for this page. – [[User:NateBumber|<span title="User:NateBumber">N8</span>]] ([[User_talk:NateBumber|<span title="Leave me a note">☎</span>]]/[[Special:Contributions/NateBumber|<span title="Spy on my edits">👁️</span>]]) 18:55, October 30, 2019 (UTC)
