Talk:New Traveller

Name

The name “New Traveller” has not caught on anywhere I look. I strongly recommend a move:

1. Current Mongoose Traveller to something like Mongoose Traveller 1e, Mongoose Traveller OGL, etc.
2. Current New Traveller to Mongoose Traveller for that is what I find it called in the world around me which includes the little community of disembodied human text engines that reside in the Internet beyond this wiki.

I imagine being persuaded to support Mongoose Traveller 1e and Mongoose Traveller 2e with #REDIRECT or Disambiguation pages pointing to 2e.

User_talk:Tjoneslo/archive-2018#New_Traveller_vs._MGT-2 - previous discussion of why I selected "New Traveller". It matches the name and marketing materials used by Mongoose. Tjoneslo (talk) 22:34, 22 June 2020 (EDT)

Used then. Not now. Didn’t even show up in my Google and Qwant searches. —¿philoserf? (talk) 01:01, 23 June 2020 (EDT)

I added a note as to why the (now non-existent) term was adopted by the wiki. Please let me know if I should make this stronger. Tjoneslo (talk) 08:28, 6 September 2020 (EDT)

I return to this thorn in my paw. New Traveller is no longer new. Can we revisit this naming convention yet. It is found only here. —¿philoserf? (talk) 21:20, 30 August 2021 (EDT)
