Alternate Doctors
Im not sure enough to change the article but does anyone remember something in Timewrym Revelation suggesting that the alternate Doctor in Inferno and Face of the Enemy was one of the versions shown to the Doctor in the War Games. Im not sure though bc it has been ages since i read revelation --Amxitsa 21:07, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Individual Doctor articles
Is there any plan already laid out somewhere for how to approach articles for the individual Doctors? Or is this being left up for an enterprising soul to tackle at will?

Either way, I may have some time to contribute to such things... UncleMikey 23:53, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)


 * Individual articles on each incarnation of the Doctor are certainly intended to be a part of the project, and the tasks are pretty much up for grabs. The only set requirement is that, as with all articles on characters, planets, alien species, and so forth, the articles be written from a "Whoniverse" point-of-view, that is, written as they would appear to a person living in the Doctor Who universe who would accessing the articles from say, the TARDIS Index File, the Matrix, or some tome in the Library of St. John the Beheaded.

Fifth Doctor (also Known as the First Doctor)
Can someone explain this comment please - it says "see below" but I can't see anything below that explains why the Fifth Doctor is the First Doctor?


 * Good question, short of anyone being able to provide a logical explanation of what this means then i suggest we just delete the numbers in brackets --Amxitsa 10:43, 13 May 2006 (UTC)


 * I've removed the items in question. They looked to be the usual sort of smart-alecky edits and vandalism made by people who have nothing else to do with their time. --Freethinker1of1 16:30, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

Italics
Why are some of these lines and paragraphs itaicised?


 * It might imply that it's from a spin-off, but I'm not entirely sure. I say we should just turn it to regular text. Azes13 23:11, 16 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Yes, an early idea in this Wiki that any references that were not directly from the TV series (eg books, audios, comic-strips etc) would be written in italics. However, (as demonstrated here) it was felt that this distinction would not be obvious and so was abandoned. --Mantrid 06:26, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

Change main pic?
instead of main picture, perhaps:


 * one of the First Doctor, one of the Tenth Doctor, side by side


 * just one of the Tenth Doctor


 * no main photo and simply photos to the left of all the Doctors, including the minor Doctors, but smaller than the pictures in the main entries for any given Doctor. --***Stardizzy*** 20:00, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

pictures of the Doctors
update: I plan on uploading small portraits of each Doctor side-by-side with their mini-profile as with Pertwee. I have had some trouble re-sizing the portraits. --***Stardizzy*** 20:28, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
