Talk:Parallel universe (The Girl Who Loved Doctor Who)

Rename?
Epsilon raises a good point over here: could we maybe rename this page to the conjectural "Ally's World"? It rolls off the tongue better, is a better-looking dab, and will help to avoid the very problem summerised in the linked page up there. WaltK ☎  16:48, 22 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Ah. Regarding Peter Davison, I believed that this universe was already called Ally's World - however, this is a name I disagree with, so I would disagree with this page being renamed to it.
 * The usage of "world" originated with Pete's World, but since then, the Wiki has tried to cram other universes into this naming convention despite it being disingenuous to the original sources.
 * I'd be happy with Ally's universe, with "universe" being uncapitalised, but creating conjectural name like "Ally's World" is a bad move to me. It is also worth mentioning that doesn't even show up on mobile.  📯 📂 21:38, 22 April 2022 (UTC)
 * It's a long shot but, how about "Real world (The Girl Who Loved Doctor Who)", which is what Ally herself calls it? Or maybe one of the names the Eleventh Doctor coins: "Anti-real world", or "Non-real world"? WaltK ☎  18:05, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
 * I can't say I agree, those terms are too ambiguous. Just because a character describes a world in a certain way doesn't mean it should consistently be used to refer to it. Unlike, say, Pete's World, even if we include a disambiguation term, things about the "real world" are too confusing. Chubby Potato ☎  18:51, 23 August 2022 (UTC)
