:I don't find the matter particularly concerning. Would "Series 1 (Doctor Who 2005)" be confusing if the brunt of it had aired in 2006, but ''Rose'' had been aired as a sort of 'pilot' in late 2005? I wouldn't think so. Ultimately "Season 1 (Doctor Who 2023)" is going to be ''faintly'' confusing for a couple of years, but by the time we're on 2027's "Season 3 (Doctor Who 2023)", and beyond, it will have become a complete non-issue. --[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|Scrooge MacDuck]] [[User talk:Scrooge MacDuck|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 04:46, 4 March 2024 (UTC) | :I don't find the matter particularly concerning.

::This presupposes that people will adopt the 2023 standard rather than the 2024 standard, which isn't a given. Especially since we're, uniquely, going to lack a series made in the relevant year, which I think will be counterintuitive to many readers.

:::This rule, whatever we go for has to be able to be applied to everything TV, because if it isn't we'll be down this discussion again when an exception to the rule comes along. | |||
:::Fractal's suggestion of dabbing by Doctor kinda imposes the in-universe on a real world page. I think we need to keep the dab terms for real world pages real world. | |||
:::I, like SOTO think SilverSunBird and 66 Seconds' suggestions are the best for the wiki. | |||
:::I don't really like it personally, but I think it'll work for the wiki. | |||
:::SOTO I don't think adding contractions of years really helps. Especially for big season pages, the saving of one character isn't that much. —[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] / '''[[User talk:Tangerineduel|talk]]''' 06:03, 4 March 2024 (UTC) | |||
