::::::::My preference would be to use "(character)" where that is sufficient disambiguation, and "(game character)" when there are other characters from other media with that same name. I do like the idea of handling Red just like [[Misty]], where there are pages for her counterparts in other media, but the main page still serves as a hub for her appearances across all media (so it's not titled "Misty (game character)"). In cases where it isn't necessary at all (e.g. [[Hilda]]), just drop the dabtag entirely.

::::::::For Pokémon characters, they really need to specify the exact game they are from. For example, [[Necrozma (game)]] really be titled {{redlink|Necrozma (Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon character)}} instead. But I think that's an entirely different matter to how we handle protagonists and rivals who currently use "(game)" in their titles. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 06:55, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
