Given the naming conventions adopted by
classic models mods (softcore & pornstar), MIR may need to reconsider some of the forms used here for settling model ids. Mods. in those sections now prefer model threads to have only one (whether two-
or one-part) name for each model thread. Whereas earlier MIR agonised over, for example, how to name
this model, and eventually settled on Katia | Chantal as her two best-known one-part handles, with other akas regarded as subsidiary, now her thread uses only the first name, Katia, with Chantal "demoted" to an aka included in the first post.
There are plenty of other such model threads still sitting in MIR awaiting (preferably) a two-part name. One example: Anna | Marina | etc.

I'm not saying we shouldn't still prefer 2-part names, & so the likes of Anna | Marina | etc. can remain in MIR if so desired. My point is about those instances where MIR decides to use more than one (separate) name as with Katia | Chantal. Those will be changed by
classic model mods., so is there much point in further agonising over/shuffling additional names, in such cases?
A couple more examples:
Elizabeth Baker | Sherrice - Sherrice would be removed from the title & placed in the first post listing of akas.
Jamie Lynn | Robin - Robin would likewise be removed.
It is important/very useful for MIR to
find & list such akas for models, but we need also to understand how section mods. will then treat/use that info., so as to not simply create additional work for ourselves/them, switching things backwards & forwards, etc.
Also: classic models mods. have removed publishers from model thread titles--e.g. Mayfair, CeeCee, etc. I haven't checked but they
may have similar views as regards e.g. Suze Randall or Digital Desire?

Note: the above comments only apply to classic models, I'm not aware of any of it applying to modern models.
As regards possible clashes of names I've been told classic models mods. will use numbers, e.g. Katia [2], etc., or similar.
