Talk:Mr Saldaamir

Rename

I think it's clear that the page name shouldn't just be "Saldaamir". As Mr Saldaamir explicitly says, "he did insist on being called Mister Saldaamir"!

• He is called "Mr Saldaamir" 5 times: twice in Beige Planet Mars (1998) and once each in The Infinity Doctors (1998), Unnatural History (1999), and Father Time (2001).
• He is called "Mister Saldaamir" 15 times: once in Fishy Business (1999), five times in Mr Saldaamir (2003), and nine times in The Gallifrey Chronicles (2005).
• Only once, in Mr Saldaamir, is he called "Saldaamir" without it being preceded by "Mr" or "Mister".

What's clear is that "Mr" or "Mister" belongs in the name of the page. Which of those to pick is less clear. The chapter in The Gallifrey Chronicles where he is exclusively called "Mister" rather than "Mr" feels very deliberate to me, and it's much more substantive than the one- or two-line mentions in the four novels listed in the first bullet point. For this reason I'm leaning towards "Mister Saldaamir" for the page name. Thoughts? – n8 (☎) 16:36, 7 August 2023 (UTC) [edited 16:49, 7 August 2023 (UTC)]

I personally think we should go with what appears more consistently throughout the texts, with a redirect from the other. Danniesen ☎ 16:39, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
