:: +1 to this.  Quasar's post convinced me (what's that line about [[Development of Doom#Tom Hall and the Doom Bible|plot being an afterthought?]]), but then I read the page and realized I'd forgotten BTSX — how time flies! — which is undoubtedly where the word "Saturn" is most used by today's community.  But in the wider gaming world, "Saturn" by itself obviously means the console, so it should also be listed.  Regarding the original edit [https://doomwiki.org/w/index.php?title=Saturn&diff=151236&oldid=67096], I imagine the Wikia person doesn't know there are Doom fans outside Steam, and was just mechanically doing keyword searches.    [[User talk:Ryan W|Ryan W]] (''[[Special:PermaLink/113430|usually gone]]'') 16:56, 16 June 2017 (CDT)

Disagree with change[edit]

Most people who put Saturn in the search box are looking for the port. The Master Levels levels, which are dubiously canonical to begin with as they feature stories created by their authors before they were ever involved with id Software, mention Titan, not Saturn. Thus the article created should be about Titan itself, following articles for Phobos and Deimos in style. This should go back to being a redirect. --Quasar (talk) 12:14, 9 June 2017 (CDT)
