page title

This may have to wait until there's a pool of anime/manga editors with the background to know -- but do we want the main page to be Dragon Ball Z? Dragon Ball Z is the equivalent of naming the main Naruto page "Naruto Shippuden." On the other hand, if you name it Dragon Ball Z, everyone (in the English-speaking fandom) will know what it is but it can be viewed as a little strange and I've seen people get really mad if you call the manga Dragon Ball Z. I'm just saying. - inkstone 22:38, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

Throw up an "attention gardeners" tag, and see what they say? --Anenko 22:50, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
Oh, ok! Thanks. I guess the main concern here is that Dragon Ball Z refers to a specific section of the storyline, and it even says so in the article. The article is specifically only talking about that anime (and not the Dragon Ball that preceded it). That's okay! But then we'll need a parent Dragon Ball page that's more inclusive. - inkstone 23:13, 23 May 2011 (UTC)
Understood! I redirected DB to DBZ because that's the only content that currently exists. If someone creates a DB page, we can get rid of the redirect. --Anenko 23:18, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

The name change notice has been up for a year. Should this page be moved? If yes, what name should be used? --Doro 09:31, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

The main article (this one) should be Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z should redirect to it. - inkstone 11:00, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
I moved the page. --Doro 14:19, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
Thanks! - inkstone 14:20, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
