'''seaWiki DSV''' uses descriptive terms to give names to technologies and other subjects which haven't been given a canonical name.

Contributors are encouraged to use descriptive terms for important technologies, characters or events that have been sufficiently defined, but that are not ubiquitous or commonplace, such as "telephones." Contributors should create terms that match the function or the disposition or similar characteristic of the subject.

Articles that describe ordinary, mundane topics on seaWiki DSV (commonly nicknamed as ''"telephone articles"'' because of their obvious usage) are subject to speedy deletion.

Once a subject, character or item has an official term, the descriptive terms are retired and used as redirects.

The names of most conflicts, such as the [[Attack on the Westridge Farming Community]], are descriptive terms as well unless the conflict's name is named by a character in an episode. Normally conflict articles take on the name of its location or a specific target, or some natural combination thereof.
