Right, they haven't been licensed appearances of the word/copyright "Gallifrey". But in-universe, it's the same planet. Not ''implicitly'' — it's sheer ''logic'' that it's the same planet. I mean, what would you proposing we ''do'', implementation-wise? "According to one account, [[the Homeworld]] was another name for [[Gallifrey]], home to the [[Great House]]s of the [[Time Lord]]s… whereas according to another account [[the Homeworld]] was the home of the [[Great House]]s"? There ''isn't actually'' a textual contradiction here, so I don't even know ''how'' we could possibly write such a thing if we wanted to.

The "List of Appearances" is a point on which I'm willing to talk. We could have [[Homeworld - list of appearances]] and [[Gallifrey - list of appearances]] ''and'' a single in-universe history for both; because lists of appearances are real-world pages. But in ''in-universe'' terms, valid sources say the Homeworld and Gallifrey are one. I really don't see what a feasible way of splitting them would be, let alone what the ''point'' of such a thing would be.
