As seen in the Do we have a project to disambig works?
Ask The Tropers, there are many works pages that seem to need disambigs, by virtue of sharing names and having no differentiation.
This thread is for the discussion and listing of what to do about such pages.
See here for a list of needed disambigs.
The List
- Film.The Lost World
- Series.Utopia
- Series.Kidnapped (2006 NBC Cop Show) (20 wicks)
- Series.The Street
- VideoGame.Star Wars Battlefront
- VideoGame.Star Wars Battlefront II
- WesternAnimation.Fantasia
- WesternAnimation.Max Steel
Similar Issues
- Then there is pages like The Host which is for the Korean film but has a bunch of wicks referring to the adaptation of The Host.
- Ransom: YMMV.Ransom only has Film entries, but Characters.Ransom is trying to be a disambig to Characters.Ransom Film and Characters.Ransom TV... Trivia.Ransom needs to be split.
- Film.Deadlands is conflicting with the Tabletop Game. Maybe move to its redirect, Film.The Dead Lands?
- Series.The Untouchables: It's holding multiple versions in there...

Just pointing out my post , since it was right at the end of the last page so you might've missed it.
Mystery Incorporated (2022) exists, but there's no other works, as far as I can tell, that are just named "Mystery Incorporated". Should it be undisambiguated?
Friends forevermore
Better safe than sorry, as it's the subtitle for an official work in that franchise.
If VideoGame.Frontiers 2020 is ever made, someone will have to remember that Film.Frontiers exists and needs disambiguation...
Should we make some List of Shows That Need Summary subpage just for such works that have titles that need disambiguation?

Why would it be a subpage?
Friends forevermore
Yeah, it's better for it to be a separate page altogether. It isn't related to shows needing summaries.
I had a dog-themed avatar before it was cool.
Oh, so not Summary, a.k.a "Summary Because someone is more likely to make such a page" and more just page of [TBD Title] "List of known works that have name overlaps with our pages, regardless of page probability"?

Fanfic.Childhoods End is sharing its name with a book and the series based on it?

Professor Gigachad
Fanfic.Childhoods End Bloodborne I guess. I doubt there is another Bloodborne fanfic named that.
CM Sandboxes, MB Sandboxes
Okay! Submitting that!
~Endark Culi - So, you know what's up and because you brought it up...
Literature.Hush Hush is having a similar issue to The Hunger Games. Both are both Named After First Installment series.
Literature.The Hunger Games page, I can't tell if it's trying to trope the book or the series. Where a link would go to the book "The Hunger Games (2008)", is a non-link.
Should we do Hush Hush similarly, the Literature for the series as a whole and Hush Hush 2009 for the book?
...
Ferals Series is also Named After First Installment, but it at least has an alternate name for book 1?

I'm helping!
You can always check that with an AO3 search. "Childhood's End" is a moderately common name, but there's only one of them in the Bloodborne fandom.
, Also FanFiction.Net. (I checked, there's no Bloodborne fics there by that name either)
The series. The series page existed before any pages for individual books did.
Literature.Hush Hush is also a series page.
Hustle is both a 2004-2012 TV series and a completely unrelated 2022 movie. I'm new to this thread, so how does the process go?

"Humans and robots living together in harmony and equality. That was my ultimate wish."
Well, if no one disagrees, you'd go on the Locked Pages Thread and ask to move those to new names, because we at least want to preserve Histories for the work pages...
But, Film.Hustle only has 4 edits, 3 being yours, you could just repost it at Film.Hustle 2022 with an edit reason of something like:
Fanfic.AfterTheEnd to Fanfic.AfterTheEndArabellaAndZsenya or maybe Fanfic.AfterTheEndTheSugarQuill since that's the site's creators?
Gotta make that a disambig with Fanfic.After The End Calvin And Hobbes after.
Fanfic.After is also weird but in a different way. Could we call it more of a Franchise, since it has 3 media, fanfic, Lit, and Film? Not that we have the pages for it...
Not sure what the disambig name should be. After 2019?

Film.Embers is clashing with Fanfic.Embers. So far, I think that all of the sub-pages belong to the Hate Fic. Preferred titles?
Fanfics now don't have the same level of name priority as legal works, I can't find where I talked about it with some mod...
But it's a thing now.
Fanfics are easiest disambig using author name, so Fanfic.Embers Vathara.

I linked past discussions (including a mod statement) here
- Ah, yep.
Found WebVideo.Hive Mind disambig needed, not sure on naming.
Was going through WebVideo-s for precedent, decided to give up when I spotted WebVideo.Bite Me with similar issues. Also goodnight.
And Blackout.

Not a Work per se, but we have Creator.Access and Access Games. Anyone against moving the first to Access Co Ltd and using the previous name as a disambig?
Then we have the animation studio Creator.Mouse, and I'd rather not do Studio Mouse, since another company with that name exists
Peeks from Under Rocks
Creator.Access Co LTD makes sense to me + disambig.
Maybe Creator.Mouse Animation Studio, custom title as "Mouse (Animation Studio)"?
the Retromancer
Continuing from ATT question.
Should VideoGame.Neverwinter Nights and VideoGame.Neverwinter Nights AOL be moved to VideoGame.Neverwinter Nights 1991 and VideoGame.Neverwinter Nights 2002 respectively like the OP says?
TroperWall / WikiMagic Cleanup

Might as well. Re-disambiguation is allowed if necessary.
I had a dog-themed avatar before it was cool.
Since VideoGame.Neverwinter Nights is part of a series with VideoGame.Neverwinter Nights 2, it could be moved to VideoGame.Neverwinter Nights 1
That does seem to be the case. I know I was surprised to check Main.Beast Tamer and come up empty.
I'll see about getting things moved to LightNovel.Beast Tamer as time allows. Maybe give it a bit to see if any later advertising adjusts the title and renders evening moot.
