Much like we've got Doctor Who Magazine/1991. To be honest, I've got to study the BIT phenomenon more to know whether that's a good idea. Years are one thing when it comes to subpages. Names may not be so smart to organise that way, because if it's known as "Battle in Time Invader", then for searchability, you wouldn't want to introduce a random slash. I definitely don't like the parenthetical (Invader), because parentheticals should only be for dab terms, and I don't think this qualifies. As I say, though, I think we need more info about the whole BIT "thing" to make a sound decision. Maybe a trip to the website (if it's still up) will help?

My broader question, though, is whether to keep "Doctor Who:" on this one, given the ubiquity of "DWBIT" in categories and on some pages like DWBIT comic stories. I think we kinda need to keep the Doctor Who: just to retain harmony between this and the issue names. We can't change the issue naming convention (DWBIT 1, DWBIT 2, etc.) without rewriting T:MAGS — and that's not gonna happen. T:MAGS is simple and easy to apply. I don't want to change it just because of a few pages about a related card game of a now-defunct magazine.
