Tardis talk:Names of actors

"However, character pages should then bear the name that was legal at the time of the story's release."

CzechOut, could you please clarify why this rule is needed? Is it for factual correctness? Or just for convenience to make credits more searchable? —⁠andrybak (talk) 07:24, March 26, 2019 (UTC)

"Past credits in which a deadname was originally used should effectively [be] treated as mistaken". If this is the case, why don't we also treat actual mistakes this way and spell names correctly on story pages? -- Saxon (✉️) 22:51, November 18, 2020 (UTC)
