Shouldn't we just move the pages to their full names. It makes much more sense that way. [[User:Jello Rabbit|Jello Rabbit]] 17:55, May 15, 2011 (UTC)

:How so? In video game series like this one where full names are kind of rare, it makes more sense to have page names be most commonly-used names, because then there aren't some pages with full names amongst many pages without (because full names for them don't exist).

Other wikis show Piddles the Cat or Taj the Genie so I assume why not? [[User:Jello Rabbit|Jello Rabbit]] 18:54, May 16, 2011 (UTC)

:Why does it matter what other wikis do? Each wiki has its own rules and should never do something if the only reason is "because this other wiki does it".

Is this about including the name of the characters' species in their titles, like Gloop the Fish? If so, I expressed my opinion on the subject on my talk page: I think just the name of the character is enough, especially since the species of many characters are hard to identify or totally novel (Gruntling the Gruntling). {{User:Jimbo Jambo/sig}} 20:08, September 12, 2011 (UTC)
