::::Though I will of course help with the bot to quickly make whatever change consensus suggests, I'm not particularly bothered one way or the other. They ''are'' audio plays. There's no difference between the two. I suppose where there's a ''slight'' bone of contention is that people have been putting Companion Chronicles and BBC Audio stuff into the "audio play" cats, and that's not really accurate. These are audiobooks or enhanced audio books. It might be simpler to just say "audios" and forget the play/drama/book distinction altogether. 21:10, May 28, 2010 (UTC) | ::::Though I will of course help with the bot to quickly make whatever change consensus suggests, I'm not particularly bothered one way or the other.

I've been thinking whilst editing through a lot of real world and story articles. The rather than "audio drama" what these things are, whether they are full cast audio dramas, Companion Chronicles or BBC audio's stuff, they're '''audio stories'''. | |||
So just as we've got TV stories we should have audio stories. I take on board CzechOut's note about calling them ''just'' audios, but that might be a little too vague with stuff like the music soundtracks. | |||
''Zagreus (audio story)'' would remain as it is, ''Telos (audio drama)'' would get moved to ''[[Telos (audio story)]]'' and everything in [[:Category:Audio plays]] would be re-categorised into [[:Category:Audio stories]] and all the other sub-categories etc would be changed from "audio play" to '''audio story'''. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] 13:22, December 4, 2010 (UTC) | |||
