Sasha's Identity

Curious as to the reasoning for this. Does she think of herself in that way? I would have expected the opposite redirect. --Makyo (talk) 19:52, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

  • Perhaps with a disambiguation box at the top: "This page refers to the cladist who is a merger of True Name, E.W., and May Then My Name. Sasha, the character from Qoheleth is referenced in Michelle Hadje/Sasha"? --Makyo (talk) 19:55, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

In this case, it is for the sake of natural disambiguation. The name she is known to the community by is Sasha, but so is Michelle/Sasha's, especially phys-side. Redirecting in this way means that the pages in which we discuss Sasha née True Name can simply read Sasha, and in the specific case that we mean Sasha qua Michelle, we know by this redirect that the correct way to name her is Michelle/Sasha and seldom just Sasha.
