==Discriminators== | |||
If two articles will have the same target name, one or both of them will need to be given a discriminator in parentheses to allow for this. For titles, the discriminator should be the type of media; if two media share a title and are of the same type, the discriminator should instead be the name of the media publisher, such as in the case of '''''Digital Devil Story: Megami Tensei'' (Telenet)'''. If one of the media in question acts as a source for other material published under the same name, it should not require a discriminator, as is the case for '''''Persona 5''''', though with priority given to video games over other types of media. | |||
