- Moved from User talk:Coobra#Titles.
Just a curiosity, why do you undo and then rename where I moved all the content and left a redirect link? oO

- Cause you're not moving them, you're copy/pasting then turning the original page into a redirect.

- I'm limited in rename number, but isn't that the same result?

- No error, it's a security against scam/spam.
- I can remove all NPC title eh? Not only the lore ones, you confirm?

- According to WW:NAME minor characters, whose full name is unknown, names should be listed under the name that is displayed in-game... however, the articles you've been moving do have full names. So to me its unclear if minor characters should be moved at all, even if they do have full names, most of them are just space filler. (Sssss/Slithered) 19:41, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

I think its time we revisit the naming policy. With several characters (NPCs) appearing in multiple locations I believe we need to define how to name them. We'll use Gryan Stoutmantle as the prime example of this. In westfall he is named his full name, whereas in Grizzly Hills he is named Captain Gryan Stoutmantle. Now I think he just remain as that with the title. Otherwise the other way of doing is Gryan Stoutmantle (Grizzly Hills). Both lead to the same thing, separate pages, but leaving captain in not only makes it look better, but is less to type out. When refering to him would you rather type out A) [Gryan Stoutmantle (Grizzly Hills)|Gryan Stoutmantle] or B) [Captain Gryan Stoutmantle]. (Sssss/Slithered) 00:25, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
