− | <!-- Note for editors: This category is different from the most comic categories, since it sorts comics by name instead of sorting them in chronological order by default using the "DEFAULTSORT" tag hidden in the comic card template.
| + | *There are several comics that almost share name with at least one other comics. |
| + | **Sometimes this is because they are related in a [[:Category:Comic series|direct series]], where it is just a number (part number) that changes, but this is not the case with all series. |
| + | **But a few comics actually share the exact same name, without being directly in a series: |
| + | ***[[786: Exoplanets]] and [[1071: Exoplanets]]. |
| + | ***[[60: Super Bowl]] and [[1480: Super Bowl]]. |
| + | **And at least two other pairs of comics only differ in that one of the titles is plural: |
| + | ***[[235: Kite]] and [[1614: Kites]]. |
| + | ***[[1027: Pickup Artist]] and [[1178: Pickup Artists]] |
| + | *All comics that thus share name with only up to one different characters are listed here. |
| + | **But for true series where this is the case, only the series, not the individual comics are listed. |

− | To add new comics in the right order in this category, use this format on a comic's category section: [[Category:Comics_sharing_name|NAME OF THE SERIES AND NUMBER]]. Replace "NAME OF THE SERIES AND NUMBER" with the actual name of the series and a number, like this: [[Category:Comics_sharing_name|Barrel 1]].

| |
− | Sometimes this is because they are part of a [[:Category:Comic series|comic series]], where often the only part of the titles that changes is the episode number of the comic. A few comics share the exact same name, without being part of a series, such as:
| |
− | *[[786: Exoplanets]] and [[1071: Exoplanets]]. Both images were originally named <code>exoplanets.png</code>. When the latter was published, this broke the former on [https://xkcd.com xkcd.com], so it was renamed <code>exoplanets_2010.png</code>.
| |
− | *[[60: Super Bowl]] and [[1480: Super Bowl]]. No images broke because the first one is a {{w|JPG}} file and the second one is a {{w|PNG}} file.
| |
− | *[[827: Business Idea]] and [[1721: Business Idea]]. When the first comic was released, the image file and the comic title were the same and there was a conflict both on [https://xkcd.com xkcd.com] and [[1721:_Business_Idea#Trivia|on this site]]. Randall renamed the second comic [[827: My Business Idea]] and the comic image <code>my_business_idea.png</code>.
| |

− | There are also other pairs of comics where the only difference is that one of the titles is plural:
| |
− | *[[1027: Pickup Artist]] and [[1178: Pickup Artists]].
| |
− | *[[518: Flow Charts]] and [[1195: Flowchart]].
| |
− | *[[235: Kite]] and [[1614: Kites]].
| |
− | *[[441: Babies]] and [[1650: Baby]].
| |
− | *[[1373: Screenshot]] and [[1863: Screenshots]].
| |
− | *[[716: Time Machine]] and [[1203: Time Machines]].
