Forum:Name of the wiki

What is the official name of this wiki? That should be a fairly simple question, but I've seen several different variants of it used. The Manual of Style really needs to specify one or at best two correct versions (one for the full formal name and a shorter version that can be used in more casual contexts). And then the various help and policy pages should be cleaned up to consistently use only those correct names. Right now, looking at the logo, most casual users will probably assume the formal name is the Doctor Who TARDIS Index File, but many of the help pages have an extra "Wiki -" in the middle, which makes it rather ungainly. And I've seen all sorts of variants used for a shorter casual name. Given that there are other Who-related wikis out there, I think it's rather important to establish a clear unambiguous identity for this wiki. And, of course, speaking as a copyeditor, inconsistent usage makes me cry.

My own votes would be for "Doctor Who TARDIS Index File" and "the TARDIS wiki."

I like "the TARDIS wiki", sounds nice and short, and more, per say, friendly. Delton Menace 23:00, December 24, 2009 (UTC)
 * The front page is the most correct. This is the TARDIS Index File, a Doctor Who Wiki.
 * I seem to recall some time ago the front page's article name was changed from being 'main page' to being what it is at the moment, 'Doctor Who Wiki', which is probably where the contention regarding the name came about. --Tangerineduel 13:18, December 25, 2009 (UTC)
 * Thing is, from a copyediting standpoint, the front page looks wrong. It should be either Welcome to the TARDIS Index File, a Doctor Who wiki that anyone can edit ("TARDIS Index File" is the official title, "a Doctor Who wiki" is a description that applies to both this web site and others and grammatically belongs to the "which anyone can edit" phrase) or Welcome to the TARDIS Index File: A Doctor Who Wiki, which anyone can edit (the title is "TARDIS Index File: A Doctor Who Wiki"; "A Doctor Who Wiki" is the subtitle, part of the official name, and grammatically distinct from the "which anyone can edit" phrase).--Bedawyn 20:23, December 25, 2009 (UTC)
