So, normally you don't include a person's various titles in their article name on a wiki, although you can within the lead or body.

However, we need to make a decision on where that difference lies. We have a lot of these that have titles, and some that don't but could have them if we decide to include them.

List
  • Ansem the Wise (poss. Ansem (the Wise), or King Ansem)
  • Ansem, Seeker of Darkness (poss. Ansem (Seeker of Darkness))
  • Aqua (poss. Master Aqua)
  • Aurora (poss. Princess Aurora)
  • Beast (poss. Prince Adam(is this canon?), The Beast)
  • Belle (poss. Princess Belle)
  • Captain Barbossa (poss. Barbossa, Hector Barbossa)
  • Captain Hook (poss. Hook)
  • Jack Sparrow (poss. Captain Jack Sparrow, Captain Sparrow)
  • Cinderella (poss. Princess Cinderella)
  • Daisy Duck (poss. Princess Daisy?)
  • Dr. Finkelstein (poss. Finkelstein)
  • Dr. Jumba (poss. Jumba)
  • Jasmine (poss. Princess Jasmine)
  • Mickey Mouse (poss. The King, Master Mickey, King Mickey, Master Mickey Mouse, King Mickey Mouse, etc.)
  • King Triton (poss. Triton)
  • Lady Tremaine (poss. Tremaine)
  • Master Eraqus (poss. Eraqus)
  • Xehanort (poss. Master Xehanort)
  • Mr. Smee (poss. Smee)
  • Mrs. Potts (poss. Potts)
  • Prince Charming (poss. Charming)
  • Prince Eric (poss. Eric)
  • Prince Phillip (poss. Phillip)
  • Minnie Mouse (poss. Queen Minnie, Queen Minnie Mouse)
  • Riku (poss. Master Riku)
  • Yen Sid (poss. Master Yen Sid)

Personally, I think the Ansems should stay the same, and for the various royalty, the title should be dropped if they are ever referred to without it. As for "Master", I don't think it should be in the article titles at all; right now, only Eraqus uses it, and I'm certain we've heard him just called Eraqus at some point. Same with Captain, I think "Barbossa" and "Hook" have appeared on their own, though if we can get canon backing for Hector and, I think, James, we should add them (if not, their articles should not be claiming them as the names). As for Squall Leonhart, and any other FF characters given full names outside the journal...I feel like we should add them in. Mr., Mrs., and Dr., it sounds pretty funky to drop, so let's leave them.

....or, we can tell Kryten to jog off, and keep using whatever the latest journal entry uses. Thoughts?

(Also, I can't access it right now, but somehow the categories on KHWiki:Horseless Headless Horsemann need to be neutered.)

480MS.png If it means changing the names to their true names or whatnot, I'm against it. Too Sci-Fi wiki-like. Next, you'll be asking on changing the tence to past, which I only agree on for certain articles. I'm happier the way things are. So sorry, but just stating my two cents.

I agree that we should drop the Master from all titles - and I too remember that the page was once just Eraqus. As for the rest, I'd say keep them - in many cases, the title is almost their first name of sorts, since they aren't referenced by their actual name in the game. That being said, I can see changing Mickey and Minnie to have their "King" and "Queen" titles, if that's what the other editors want - but I personally think they are fine as is.

KrytenKoro - Most bears were content to live their lives, mauling and eating one, maybe two humans at most. "Mass-murder," as the bears always said, "is for the sharks." But not Barry. Barry was different. He knew that one day, he would kill ALL of the humans. This is the inspiring, tear-jerking story of one bear and the dream he dared to dream.
TALK -
Minnie and Mickey have both been named without "King/Queen" in their names, so those would be left as is according to my suggestion.

Basically, the effect of my suggestion would be:

  • Captain Barbossa >> Hector Barbossa
  • Captain Hook >> Hook
  • Dr. Finkelstein >> Finkelstein
  • Dr. Jumba >> Jumba
  • King Triton >> Triton
  • Lady Tremaine >> Tremaine
  • Master Eraqus >> Eraqus
  • Mr. Smee >> Smee
  • Mrs. Potts >> Potts
  • Prince Charming >> Charming
  • Prince Eric >> Eric
  • Prince Phillip >> Phillip
  • Leon >> Squall Leonhart

With each of these being only if we can find somewhere in the scripts or journals where they are referred to with these names.
