Forum:Story characters

Hopefully I'm allowed to post this here.. Anywho, I have a question! I can't seem to locate any rules on it, so I'd appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction. I've seen pages where the title of characters in tales (such as The Hopping Pot) have the title of the story in parentheses (such as with Old man (The Wizard and the Hopping Pot)). Writing it now, I note the fact that his lack of a proper name might have something to do with it. However, if it's because all unnamed characters from tales should have a parentheses indicating their origin, shouldn't Old man's donkey or Old man's family have these indications as well? I'd appreciate any insight, and apologies if it has already been adressed in policies. I reallty couldn't locate such a discussion.
