:I think we've tended to go with the title as shown on the sleeve of titles, which tends to strip out the excess titles and other oddities shown on the cover poster. Madagascar's can be seen [https://art.gametdb.com/wii/coverfullHQ/US/GGZE52.png?1317736889 here] and indicates just "Madagascar". Redirects would probably be appropriate though.

: That said, the current handling may be inappropriate for some of the other titles in your list, who's sleeves seem to include the "Dreamworks": [https://art.gametdb.com/wii/coverfullHQ/US/GH5E52.png?1317736869 Over The Hedge], [https://art.gametdb.com/wii/coverfullHQ/US/GLHEG9.png?1317736814 Flushed Away], [https://art.gametdb.com/wii/coverfullHQ/US/G4IE52.png?1317736840Shrek: Smash n' Crash Racing], [https://art.gametdb.com/wii/coverfullHQ/US/G2RE52.png?1317736894Shrek: SuperSlam]. Though the lack of consistency between titles will really bug me, so this may need further discussion. [[User:Kolano|Kolano]] ([[User talk:Kolano|talk]]) 00:32, 2 December 2019 (CET)

::I don't think it's really that crucial as long as the title isn't wrong (e.g. matches the cover either on the front or sleeve) and any alternatives are redirected as mentioned. There's a lot of Disney games that use this same title format too then [[Epic Mickey]] doesn't as another example. If the titles are based off the sleeves consistently then that's pretty good, I didn't know that, also y'know it kind of makes sense in terms of sorting the pages to go by the edge labels, since it's like having a real collection. Maybe the sleeve edge title standard should be added to the conventions page or something? For my 2c I think I like going by the front cover full title a little bit more, or maybe by the title used in advertising? though in ads the title probably also contains the Disney or DreamWorks stamp regardless... - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 01:56, 2 December 2019 (CET)
