Naming conventions poll

There is an ongoing poll and Request for Comment at Misplaced Pages talk:Naming conventions (television)#RfC Episode Article Naming conventions which has direct relevance to how to title the Star Trek episode articles, meaning that based on how this poll comes out, many Star Trek episodes may get moved around. All interested editors are therefore strongly encouraged to participate, to ensure that your wishes are incorporated into the consensus process. --Elonka 22:10, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Requested move

The Man Trap (TOS episode) → The Man Trap
One of Our Planets is Missing (TAS episode) → One of Our Planets is Missing
Q-Less (DS9 episode) → Q-Less
The 37s (Voyager episode) → The 37s
The Andorian Incident (Enterprise episode) → The Andorian Incident
Encounter at Farpoint (TNG episode) → Encounter at Farpoint

Articles should be moved to remove unneeded disambiguation. This is in accordance with the guidelines WP:TV-NC and WP:D. Articles which do not need to be disambiguated shouldn't be disambiguated.

Important note: - This Request Move includes just one episode article from each of the six Star Trek seasons. There are many more Star Trek Episode articles which are unnessasarily disambiguated. If this Request Move concludes with support for moving these articles, then i will be going through all the Star Trek Episode articles and moving all the articles where there is unneeded disambiguation.

I felt there's no reason to include every episode article into this Request Move - it is very unlikely that someone will support/oppose the Beyond the Farthest Star (TAS episode) → Beyond the Farthest Star move but then not support/oppose the One of Our Planets is Missing (TAS episode) → One of Our Planets is Missing move. Having dozens of moves listed in this Request Move (or having dozens of Request moves) is unneeded beauracracy and mess, and i want this closed ASAP (i.e. as soon as the 5 days are up and a consensus is reached here). --`/aksha 10:10, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

1. Support, of course, as the nominator. --`/aksha 10:13, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
2. Strong support per nom, WP:TV-NC, and the three month discussion on the topic. -- Ned Scott 10:35, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
3. Support per WP:DAB, for the same reason that we name the article Alanis Morissette rather than Alanis Morissette (Canadian singer). >Radiant< 10:41, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
4. Support, per WP:DAB and WP:TV-NC. Preemptive disambiguation continues to be a bad idea, and the arguments in favor of this example (viz. "context", "consistency", "precedent" and "WikiProject ownership") are all fatally flawed. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 17:24, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
