Alternate Reality???

[edit]

The title of this template seems inconsistant with the other templates in the Star Trek franchise. Specifically in that it is an in-universe description. The Original Series is not titled 'Original Timeline: Captain Kirk Era'. It is titled The Original Series. Same is true of the The Animated Series, The Next Generation, etc. Shouldn't WP:COMMONNAME apply here? Most refer to 'Star Trek' (2009) as a reboot. That is consistant with how the other parts of the Star Trek franchise are titled as well as with other franchises on Wikipedia such as Planet of the Apes http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Template:Planet_of_the_Apes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SonOfThornhill (talkcontribs) 12:28, 1 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Would like to hear from more editors on this. Various terms have been used to describe the new films. Proposal is to be consistant and use the term 'Reboot' throughout based on WP:COMMONNAME. SonOfThornhill (talk) 12:25, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
