Forum:Naming main articles for female characters

A policy is needed
The amount of conflicting editing activity since mondays comic came out should convince anyone. This is not the first time its happened or the first time Zola's page has been moved. --Rej

Naming main article for female characters
IMO this should be kept simple. Use the female characters first name for the main article. Redirect fancier names to there.

Rational: Often the first name is all the Foglio's give us for sure. The last name is often absent. When not, often an alias, especially for interesting characters. When not an alias it is often a maiden name. Thus subject to change as the plot thickens or gets resolved.

Zola is best refered to as Zola. Agatha as Agatha. Lucrezia as Lucrezia. Violetta as Violetta. Zeuxippe as Zeuxippe. We can count on the Foglio's to keep to course and give distinguishing first names to each character. That's how they keep them straight in their own minds.

IMO any other course leads to future confusion, confilct and unnecessary work.

I am trying to resolve an editing war here. I look forward to your comments. Rej¿ ¤¤ ? 17:46, June 28, 2010 (UTC)
