:::So I'm afraid I'm going to throw a wrench in the discussion here. First and foremost, '''I agree''' with the proposal above, predicated on revisiting the Doctor/Master issue in the future (as the compromise solution to that had people specifically state that they wanted to revisit it when we were splitting The Master) and also a larger discussion about naming conventions. I don't think anyone objects to these, but I want to make them noted. The issue here is that since it was mentioned, I went back and found [[User:CzechOut]]'s [https://tardis.fandom.com/f/p/4400000000003394754/r/4400000000010958975 comment]. While it would obviously be better for Czech to defend this position himself, I'm reminded of our CoFD thread, where we didn't actively ask people who were historically against certain positions to join the thread and it potentially compromised our analysis. I'm not certain that Czech still holds the view that he's talking about as being the one they used historically. I think from his comment he might even be saying it's no longer sufficient. But it's not entirely clear, and I think we should try to find people who argued this position at the time in order to try to make sure nothing is slipping through the cracks.

:::: Whilst I agree that it'd be good to find people involved in the original decision making process to get their views, what if they don't show up? Are we just unable to make any changes because someone who isn't active might have a good counter argument? I think as long as this temp forum is advertised (e.g. is widely known about), whatever conclusion is reached by the expiration of this thread should be enacted, regardless of whether the people involved in the original decision show up or not. Just my two cents, but I don't think enacting change should rely on people who were around for the original.

: I support this, I dunno why this wasn't a thing already tbh, the reasoning behind keeping it just one page just seems extremely flimsy. [[User:TheSpaghetOutcast|TheSpaghetOutcast]] [[User talk:TheSpaghetOutcast|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 16:05, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
