There's a Darth Wiki for an unpublished work by the same title my work

Alright, so here's the story. I go to make the works page for my Web Serial Angel of Death. I look at it, and I notice that there's a link at the top with the Darth Wiki icon on it. I find this curious, as I did not create any such page corresponding to mine. Assuming that TV Tropes must automatically create a Darth Wiki for every page, (I've not created a works page before) I decide to check it out and discover this: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/DarthWiki/AngelOfDeath

I have no idea what (if anything) can or should be done about this. I'd imagine one or the other of us will have to add some modifier to our page name, but I don't know which given that his Darth Wiki page existed before my finished work page, but my page is a finished work, whereas his is an unpublished work that may never see completion.

Can someone help me handle this?

TV Tropes doesn't automatically create a Darth Wiki page for any page.

I think that you have a problem with a title collision. You'll have to create the page under a different title, then.

Is there a way to change the title of my page, and if so, what to?

My brainstorming:

Angel of Death (Web Serial) Angel of Death (XHAWK 77 X)

Uh, your work page is the one at WebVideo.Angel Of Death? Well then there is no problem with it.

No. I linked to it. It's at Literature / Angel Of Death (Angel of Death)

Thanks.

Seems liek you got me confused with your statement. I thought you needed DarthWiki.Angel Of Death for your work page. Given that you've actually already found a page for it, I see that there is no problem anymore.

That your page has to share a title with DarthWiki.Angel Of Death is a property of our title system that we don't have a solution for yet.
