Sliders Wiki talk:Parallel Earth Naming

From Sliders Wiki, a database for Sliders the television series that anyone can edit

Suggest or discuss a naming convention

Possible Naming Conventions

  1. The name given by the Sliders/Writers, ex. "Earth Prime", "Kromagg Outpost 113"
  2. The name of the episode with the suffix: "(earth)" or "(world)", ex. "Summer of Love (earth)", "Eggheads (world)"
  3. Earth Prime's titles, "Hippie World", "Einstein World"
  4. Named by divergent feature; similar to Earth Prime but unique to this wiki, ex. "Sixties World", "Intellectual World"


Naming convention Advantages Disadvantages
The name given by the Sliders/Writers Canon Not every earth is given a name
The name of the episode with the suffix: "(earth)" Easy to name and remember May be multiple earths in an episode
Several earths have been revisited
Earth Prime Already named Possible legal implications
Unique names Community driven Every name must be decided on before a page can be created

I think this wiki should use the name given by the Sliders/Writers where possible and unique names when it is not possible. -- A_morris 21:13, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
