Title (and a point about the notability of one-off names)[edit]

Do we have a definite confirmation that Eremus is indeed the proper name of Jericho VII (as opposed to, say, Owen having moved at some point)? Even were that the case, I also feel as though there's something to be said about the notability of one name versus another when it comes to the main title. When every source since 2001 (and, by extension, every in-universe character in those sources) has unanimously used the name Jericho VII, and now there's one that (maybe) gives us an alternate one, should we really go with the latter? It's clear that the planet is still widely known as "Jericho VII" in-universe, so I find it a bit questionable that we should be titling the page something that's appeared only once in a reference doc. --Tacitus (talk) 01:35, 22 February 2019 (EST)

Agreed. I think we should keep the main article as Jericho, with Eremus listed in the opening sentence as an alternate name once we get clarification. If nothing else, people are far more likely to search for Jericho VII than Eremus.BaconShelf (talk) 06:36, 22 February 2019 (EST)
