WesternAnimation/SonicSatAM -- Move to WesternAnimation/SonicTheHedgehog1993 or WesternAnimation/SonicTheHedgehogSatAM?

A continuation of this ATT query; sorry if this thread isn't in the right place, this is my first time making one for this kind of thing!

TL;DR, the page for the second Sonic cartoon is named after the Fan Nickname for the show, Sonic SatAM. The actual name of the show is just Sonic The Hedgehog; the query had a small consensus to put it at WesternAnimation.Sonic The Hedgehog Sat AM as a compromise between the current title and my suggestion of WesternAnimation.Sonic The Hedgehog 1993, but petered out once the discussion shifted over whether not SatAM should be put in parenthesis.

Since the page has a lot of wicks and loads of inbounds, I wanted to get a more solid consensus before I moved the page and made WesternAnimation.Sonic Sat AM a redirect.

Edit: uh, ignore the "move to WesternAnimation.Sonic The Hedgehog 1993" part; I originally phrased this post differently and forgot to remove that when I changed it.

I'd say move the pages over; the custom titling can be handled later.

I'm all for moving it to WesternAnimation.Sonic The Hedgehog Sat AM, with "SatAM" in parenthesis since it's not officially part of the title.

I'm fine with moving to WesternAnimation.Sonic The Hedgehog Sat AM. As for parenthesising, I found out that some wikis do use parantheses in between SatAM, so I can go either way (on the one hand, compression, on the other hand, non-official title).

No opinion on the parentheses, but the page should be moved.

I'm about to start moving pages, but what about the Recap pages? Are they fine where they are or do they need to be moved too?

Ideally, they should be moved for consistency's sake, but I guess they're fine as long as Recap.Sonic Sat AM gets moved.

Would any page names go over the length limit?

What's the length limit? I'm about to go to bed so I'll count the characters later, though from a glance there's at least five that might cause a problem.

From what I know, the length limit is 64 characters. From what I can tell, none of those title exceed it or would even if 11 extra chars from "TheHedgehog" were added. The problem is that they made titles have stuff like "S01E01", basically wasteful insertion of zeroes especially since the show only had 2 seasons, removing those in the new page title would remove 1 or 2 extra characters (and obviously, compression, for page title length as well).

Perhaps, because it's a finished work with two seasons, we could use "S1E01" to save a character.

Well, yes, I know that (and I think I said that). It will hopefully be done when this is moved to the full title we agreed on.

Starting move now, will save recap pages for last.

Edit: finished moving main and sub pages, now on to the recaps.

Edit 2: finished the recaps, relocated subpage wicks. I also turned WesternAnimation.Sonic The Hedgehog into a disambig for the four Sonic cartoons.

So I noticed the old subpages were turned into redirects for the new ones. I don't think that's necessary for the ones that have been dewicked, I doubt there's that many inbounds to justify it.

It's to preserve the page history, more than anything.
