Talk:List of future Big Finish releases

Merge
How come the Big Finish stuff gets a seperate "future releases" page. Why not just merge it with List of future releases?? --DCLM ☎  19:35, April 23, 2019 (UTC)

Probably because of the sheer volume of upcoming Big Finish releases and rumours. Whereas there’s only really a handful of non-BF stuff so it’s easier to navigate if they’re separate. SarahJaneFan ☎  20:05, April 23, 2019 (UTC)
 * I mean, look at the amount of footnotes. This page has more than double of footnotes than the "non-BF releases". Merging would only make non-BF future releases harder to navigate through. OncomingStorm12th ☎  22:26, April 23, 2019 (UTC)

Why existence?
Another thing I don't quite understand is why does this and the other "future releases" page even exist? Doesn't that kinda break the "no spoilers" policy that says we can't add stuff that hasn't been released yet? --DCLM ☎  20:31, April 23, 2019 (UTC)


 * I believe that spoilers are okay in Out of Universe articles as long as they’re spoiler tagged. SarahJaneFan ☎  21:29, April 23, 2019 (UTC)


 * That is absolutely not true. The only pages where spoilers are allowed are series pages, which I guess this is considered. No other out-of-universe articles are allowed to have spoilers. Shambala108 ☎  21:50, April 23, 2019 (UTC)

CV question
Hello, I saw this line under Audio in Jane Slavin CV "2020, Audio, Romana, DOCTOR WHO: THE LOST STORIES, Big Finish, Tom Baker."

Do you know if this means that she played another incarnation of Romana or it just confirms what we all knew that she play Romana in soundhouse Sessions as Lalla and Tom never record together?

(I ask here because I think it's relevant to this page). [] 109.186.182.122talk to me

Has the coming "Iris Wildthyme and Friends" range not been added to this page for an official reason, or has it just been overlooked so far? -- Noneofyourbusiness ☎  15:06, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I had assumed it had already been added frankly. Feel free to add it! I'm honestly quite excited for the more explicit defining of the Magrsverse with these releases. 📯 📂 15:10, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Done. This is my first time using this template. -- Noneofyourbusiness ☎  15:09, 20 March 2021 (UTC)

On a certain story removed from this list
Should we mention said story anywhere on this wiki? I know we have some coverage of other unreleased stories, and that particular one is pretty notable as the first performed story (as far as I know) in the DWU to be fully completed but ultimately unreleased. Or is there some reason it doesn’t qualify? Or is it too soon to call either way? NightmareofEden ☎  18:45, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Not quite the first, actually. But the announcement mentioned "at this time"; best to let this settle a little while. Once we pass the planned release date, it should probably get an invalid page. Scrooge MacDuck ☎  19:22, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
 * I think in this instance readers would benefit from having this represented on the wiki with a full page for the unproduced (or unreleased) story.


 * I understand the caution, and definitely agree that in the absence of a clear statement like the one we got, that we'd do well to wait. Making sure not to fall afoul of T:SPOIL in the case of a potentially late release is important.


 * That said, Big Finish is being quite clear that this release — ready though it might have been for release — is not on the roster. They have no plans to release it, so the story should join others of its kind. 21:30, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Ech, I suppose that does make sense. I guess I was putting undue weight on that "at this time", which is probably just a weasel word allowing them to hypothetically back out later, but clearly not indicative of the current intent.


 * I join User:SOTO in clearing the page for creation as unprod or invalid (depending on what we decide is more appropriate; precedent in this area is understandably quite scarce). Scrooge MacDuck ☎  21:35, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
