Talk:Endgame (DWM comic story)

About the name of this article
The name of this story is quite clearly the one word title, Endgame. Only the first part of this story makes the title look like two words. The titles are drawn in the style of Scrabble titles, and, as we all know, Scrabble doesn't allow two-word moves. If you move past the first part in the original printing, the letters are arranged in a more linear fashion, just as they are on the front cover of the graphic novel.

If this is one word, though, why is there the need to give the publication prefix in the disambig term? After all, the DWBIT story is, apparently, two words: End Game. Well, in the first place, I haven't seen the DWBIT issue in question, DWBIT 25. So I don't know what the graphic actually looks like. I'd still be willing to bet that it could be Endgame, simply because endgame is a real English word, whereas End Game is technically bad English. Even if it turns out to actually be End Game, many users won't be expecting that, since, again, it should be Endgame. Thus, attaching the prefix will make it clearer in auto-completion which one is which.

The point is, this is a special case, in terms of disambiguation policy, and it should not be seen as the way to handle most cases of nearly exact title matches. 00:15: Tue 25 Oct 2011
