The above grouping only includes characters whose names are currently not unique on the wiki. Characters whose names were already unique are listed below; the issue of whether the longer titles should be used regardless as "Tardis:Characters with one name" is probably best decided case-by-case, as described in the policy about when not to disambiguate.
 * Abbott to Tom Abbott
 * Carney to Mick Carney
 * Fedorin to Nicholas Fedorin
 * Griffiths to Charles Griffiths
 * Katz to Katz Makrif
 * Kebek to Caladru Kebek

 * Swift to Roger Swift
 * Van Lutyens to Pieter Van Lutyens
 * Wagg to Joseph Wagg
 * Wheeler to Angela Wheeler
 * Wigner to Robert Wigner
 * Zaroff to Hermann Zaroff

It's worth noting that there are already a ton of pages which use names from novelisations. An incomplete sample: Archie Sylvest; August Lilt; Cairn; Cass Fermazzi; Cedric (The King's Demons); Colin Redmayne; Derek Johnson; ECCO; Edith Randall; Fariah Neguib; Frank Harris; Fyodor Nikolai Kerensky; George Morris; Heidi Scarlioni; Jason Overton; Jebal; Joanna; Joshua Jobel; Justin Vogel; Lancelot Takis; Lee Lin; Mary Smith; Megara One; Megara Two; Odessa Smith; Owen Bywater; Owen Watson; Palmer; Ram Vermas; Robert Lines; Sakkib; Simon Metcalf; Smith; Sylvia Gribbins; Tasambeker Brown; Theodore Benik; Vincent Russell; Vorn; and Wilkins. Let them serve as not only demonstrations of the practicality of novelisation names being used more generally but also prompts for us to reconsider the current policy which forbids their existence!

Realities
When it comes to continuity, tone, and worldview, the Doctor Who universe's many spin-offs and sub-series have usually been more concerned with themselves than each other. For instance, within a series such as The Monthly Adventures, one can expect to find more references to previous audios and the Classic show than the Virgin Decalogs or Doctor Who annuals. As a result, each series presents a relatively self-contained chunk of the Doctor's reality. Sometimes these pieces have ebbed and flowed into each other through shared characters or references; other times, they have gone out of their way to paint each other as separate timelines or universes.

While acknowleding that most sources suggest these chunks all to be the same reality, covering them separately helps to highlight the ways in which they stand on their own. TheChampionOfTime and MrThermomanPreacher have paved the way for this with the creation of pages like Virgin reality and The Doctor's reality (An Unearthly Child). I've contributed to MrThermomanPreacher's collaborative chart of these "reality" pages, both created and relinked, along with the approximate stories and series they cover.
