In all our experience at the Russian Wiki, the Series 1 (2005) / Series 2 (2006) / Series 3 (2007) system has never led to any such confusion. Frankly, the idea that Series 2 (2006) leds somebody to believe there's Series 1 (2006) seems a bit ridiculous, like too much overthinking it. I want to give another example of such system - just look at how Wikipedia puts the season names at their lists of episodes [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Doctor_Who_episodes_(1963%E2%80%931989) classic] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Doctor_Who_episodes_(2005%E2%80%93present) new], it clearly works. Same goes for other internet sources - [https://thedoctorwhosite.co.uk/doctorwho/episodes/ one example]. I believe it's traditionally agreed upon that when a year is noted in parentheses, it means the release year of this particular thing. --[[User:Dmitriy Volfson|Dmitriy Volfson]] [[User talk:Dmitriy Volfson|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 07:40, 1 April 2024 (UTC) | In all our experience at the Russian Wiki, the Series 1 (2005) / Series 2 (2006) / Series 3 (2007) system has never led to any such confusion.

::I'd still like the overarching range (e.g. "Doctor Who", "Torchwood", "Sarah Jane Adventures"/"SJA", etc.) to be noted in the dab as well as the year so that whatever system we agree on can be applied uniformly to all series/season pages on the wiki.
