The articles name should be „star trek“ and nothing else. That is the actual name of the series like its mentioned in the title screen. The addition „the original series“ should not be there because it is not part of the actual title mentioned in the opening. The title screen should be the only source for this, because it IS the title screen. Wikipedia should list the names of things truthfuly and not some nickname from fans or stuff like that. A mention of the addition can be done in the article text somewhere as some kind of info, but not in the article title itself.
Furthermore the article for the franchise „star trek“ should have the addition „(franchise)“ to distinguish itself from the more older series called „star trek“. 2003:C8:6F25:EE00:BF19:5A5:EBC2:68F9 (talk) 20:43, 26 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
Disagree. Paramount has taken on "The Original Series" as part of the official title (it is no longer a "nickname from fans." Official releases of home media, as well as other licensed products contain the subtitle "The Original Series." Rcarter555 (talk) 20:56, 26 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

I just noticed that in some episodes in the first season, maybe many or all of them, Spock refers to himself as a "Vulcanian." Perhaps this was permanently changed to "Vulcan" at some point. Wastrel Way (talk) Eric Wastrel Way (talk) 20:54, 26 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
Probably the scriptwriters got a memo from Vulcan indicating that this is their preferred demonym. Martindo (talk) 05:00, 8 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
