Do you have any references? If not, I don't think you have much ground to stand on. Per the Darth page,

"Darth was a title given to the  Dark Lords of the  Sith Order, which preceded a moniker different from the birth name. " 

Even the Legends entry of the page seems to corroborates this.

''" Darth was a title given to certain  Sith Lords which preceded either their chosen  Sith name, or, in some cases, their birth name." ''

Going by other sources, there is an ongoing discussion as to the meaning or purpose of the Darth title on Wikipedia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk%3ADarth

The consensus seems to be that it is currently a title. It is theorized that it might have originally been a name, but the assertions seem to be conjecture with little legitimate backing, canonically or otherwise. It's been 30 years since the script of the original star wars film, I think you can probably put the idea to rest that Sith is anything but a title at this point.

Moving on, I think that, if you insist on enforcing the rules of your wiki, you should do so fairly. I think anyone would be equally justified changing pagenames to eliminate the Darth titles. Which is not to say I agree with doing so. I think titles are an appropriate and easy means of conveying information about a character's role, status or influence within the context or framework of a story. I think this fanon should consider ammending their policies to allow the use of titles for this reason.

I'll find out who the administrators are here later and suggest it.
