:Additionally, I think a "dab"-less version of any real-world story, series, etc should almost always redirect to the real world page, and having an in-universe disambiguation term should be standard on such pages. Whether it's through searching or linking, 99% of the time the link is meant to go to the real-world page.

:: It would be nice to be able to treat stuff [[TV Action! (comic story)]] and [[The Girl Who Loved Doctor Who (comic story)]] as correlating, it does feel a little odd sometimes that [[Tom Baker (TV Action!)]] and [[Tom Baker (The Girl Who Loved Doctor Who)]] are treated as different people simply because we can't ''prove'' that the meta-reality of both comics is the same universe. It's a pretty big exception to [[T:DAB OTHER]] but in the end I think it would make the wiki a much easier place to comprehend.

:: And I do think the specificity in DABBING is the best route. ''The Seeds of Doom (in-universe novel)'' and ''The Seeds of Doom (in-universe serial)'' both sounds fine to me. [[User:OttselSpy25|OS25]][[User Talk:OttselSpy25|🤙☎️]] 21:37, 20 February 2023 (UTC) | |||
