I've spoken to Brandon Rhea on IRC over at Wookiepedia and we came to the conclusion that its impossible for this change to really cause harm. I have thought up of one way it can harm you (which is kinda on the user's head); if you have a wiki name that's an in-series reference not a franchise name, and you do not mention the franchise title in the body of the article but did in the pagetitle. Then the content will rank weaker for the search term " " without a customised pagetitle - but that would be on your head.

As for article SEO ranking, I've got some strange SEO issues on a wiki I edit which I think has to do with similar phrasing in different articles, how would we investigate that?

EDIT: BTW, making an article like that is like making an article on Han Solo and not stating that he's from Star Wars in the lede - its a little questionable.
