Talk:Cyber-Leader 2 (Cyber Crisis)

Rename

I've added a SpeedyRename tag on this page because there are actually two Cyber-Leaders in Cyber Crisis. The first Cyber-Leader appears earlier in the story that this one and is destroyed before this page's Cyber-Leader even appears at all, so they're not the same individual. Although the first Cyber-Leader is physically identical to regular CyberNeomorphs, I've named its page as Cyber-Leader 1 because it's referred to as "Leader" by another Cyberman, which "Cyber-Leader" is often abbreviated to. Besides, the colouring oddity is, I believe, most likely a colouring error.

I'm aware that the page's name may cause confusion with Cyber-Leader Two from Doomsday, but it makes the most sense to me, as "Cyber-Leader 2", while conjectural, is the best we've really got for a distinct name, and the addition of "(Cyber Crisis)" at the end of its name seems unnecessary to me given that Cyber-Leader Two is formatted purely in words, and numbers are often used in page titles where distinction from another similarly-named page is necessary (e.g. TARDIS 1 (The Timeless Children) and TARDIS 2 (The Timeless Children)). Although, given that two Cyber-Leaders are present in Killing Ground, a disambiguation page for numbered Cyber-Leaders may be in order. Thalek Prime Overseer ☎ 09:35, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

Sounds all good, except I don't believe using the numbers as the sole disambiguators from other cyber-leaders is good practice. If I search "cyber-leader" it's gonna be non-obvious which page is for the leaders from Cyber Crisis. Using the story name to dab would aid searchability. Danochy ☎ 09:01, 4 August 2021 (UTC)

I... probably should've thought more about the whole searchability thing. So, Cyber-Leader 2 (Cyber Crisis) should probably be the new name. I should've thought about this a bit more before making Cyber-Leader 1, now that probably needs renaming accordingly to Cyber-Leader 1 (Cyber Crisis). I'm good with your suggestions, Danochy, I'll just have to stick a rename tag on Cyber-Leader 1 as well. Thalek Prime Overseer ☎ 10:01, 4 August 2021 (UTC)

No big deal, truly. I'll get the renames done now. OncomingStorm12th ☎ 22:44, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
