Daizenshuu EX DB wiki...again

[Silver Sinspawn]

Hey, for names, would the article use the full name, or what?
Like, would Mr. Satan be Mr. Satan, or Mark Satan, or Hercule Satan (whichever is correct)
Or TPP-EX, would it be TPP-EX, or Tao Pai Pai EX (even though it isn't directly referred to as that, but it's highly likely to stand for that.)

[B]

Use the name they are most known by. Why would we call the Goku article "Kakarotto?"

[Silver Sinspawn]

But would we use full names?
Would he be Goku or Son Goku?

[Amigo Ten]

I'd have thought "Son Goku" would be the obvious choice, along with "Mr. Satan".

[Silver Sinspawn]

Well, is Mr. Satan his actual name?
Because his first name is Mark.
I heard Mr. Satan was a stage name, is this true?

[Amigo Ten]

Yes, it's just a stage name. But it's what he most commonly known by, being the only name given to him in the series. Having his article just titled "Mark" would be pretty silly.

Also, Mark isn't his first name. He's not called Mark Satan. It's just Mark.

[Silver Sinspawn]

Point taken.
I do have a question though. what will we do for the case of Gohan?
There's Son Gohan, Goku's adoptive grandfather, and Son Gohan, Goku's son.
Should we just call one Grandpa Gohan?

I think this is the only case of two characters with one name.

[Amigo Ten]

"Son Gohan (Grandpa)" or something, I should imagine.

[Silver Sinspawn]

I vote for either Son Gohan (Dragon Ball Character) while the other one would be DBZ character.
Or Grandpa Son Gohan. Uh. lets let Mike decide on that.

Are we just a DB/Z/GT wiki, or are we going to do Dr Slump and Neko Majin too?
Because they both appear to be in the same world, and none of them have a good wiki.

[Innagadadavida]

They're both cannonical characters, there's no need to separate them based on the name from the anime adaptation. Son Gohan and Son Gohan (something) work perfectly. It could be "Grandfather," "Original," or whatever.

[Silver Sinspawn]

I'd suppose we just call one Grandfather Son Gohan.

[Amigo Ten]

I think it should start with Son just so the whole Son family is grouped together alphabetically.

[Silver Sinspawn]

That's going to make it harder. What we should do also is have a page entitled "The Son Family" which would have all the family listed, and a brief biography. Plus a Brief (or Briefs) Family page.

[B]

Why? They're never really touted together; they're exposited as their own separate entities.

[Sprite Satan]

It's easy, wikinoobs.

Son Gohan
Son Gohan (Grandpa)
Son Goku
Son Goten

This stuff isn't rocket science. You just throw up an italicised line at the start of Son Gohan's page that says...

This article is about Son Gohan, the son of Son Goku. If you are looking for the adoptive grandfather of Son Goku, please refer to Son Gohan (Grandpa)

Or you could make a disambiguation page like so...

Son Gohan may refer to one of two people

Son Gohan (Dragonball Z) The first born son of Son Goku and Chichi
Son Gohan (Grandpa) The adoptive grandfather of Son Goku

There's no point worrying about individual article names. There's not even a wiki yet.

[Silver Sinspawn]

Well, i suppose that's a good point. I was just thinking family history, but that basically fits into the characters pages. Too bad nobody in DBZ has a Naruto type back story flashback that didn't involve Freeza.

I guess we could make a category for both families.
Its a shame that nobody else has a last name.

[Amigo Ten]

It's easy, wikinoobs.

Son Gohan
Son Gohan (Grandpa)
Son Goku
Son Goten

Exactly.

[Silver Sinspawn]

I'd rather the term "grandfather" to "grandpa".

[Amigo Ten]

Why? How often do you hear "Grandfather Gohan" rather than "Grandpa Gohan"?

[Piccolo Daimaoh]

What about for Krillin? Because Daizenshuu EX uses Kuririn and Kanzentai uses Krillin.
