Talk:Ian Chesterton

Comments
Still writing this up, I've run out of time today! It's slightly altered from the original layout, but what does everyone think? Kazzab72 12:25, 13 Apr 2005 (EDT)


 * Looks great so far. --Freethinker1of1 22:59, 13 Apr 2005 (EDT)

Content for the page is finished, unless anyone wants to add anything. Added a photo, but I'm having problems getting Wiki markup for the table working properly (it's in HTML at the moment). Not too sure about placement of the photo.--Kazzab72 09:09, 14 Apr 2005 (EDT)

What is the 'Humanian' era? Is this a real term? What is it's origin? --Mantrid 03:25, 14 Jul 2005 (UTC)

as I said on the comments for the First Doctor entry, it comes from the TVM. dorky-sounding phrase, but nevertheless canonical. --*Stardizzy* 04:16, 14 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for the clarification. You're absolutely right, of course. You can tell I haven't watched the TVM that often can't you. (In fact I've only watched it once on its original transmission!). --Mantrid 17:08, 16 Jul 2005 (UTC)

"An Adventure in Space and Time"
What's wrong with adding the actor from the docudrama? He obviously acted as "Ian Chesterton" in the scenes where they recreated scenes from the original episodes. -- 70.24.244.51talk to me 06:43, November 24, 2013 (UTC)
 * There is a difference, though it can be hard to see. The docudrama actor never acted as Ian, he only acted as William Russell. While in character as William Russell, he acted as Ian, but he never acted as Ian in any DW story. Shambala108 ☎  15:18, November 24, 2013 (UTC)

2.2 Updated with new information
The sign in front of Coal Hill at the beginning of Day of the Doctor lists I. Chesterton as Chairman of the Governors.

Francis
Does the "Francis" middle name come from either version of The Crusade, or is that citation in the lead mentioning where he was knighted? -- Tybort (talk page) 21:57, September 1, 2015 (UTC)


 * I've removed it. In The Crusade, he is knighted as Sir Ian of Jaffa — no mention of Francis. If it can be found in a source, it can be re-added. Shambala108 ☎  01:26, September 2, 2015 (UTC)
 * I've checked The Crusades and An Introduction and, unless I've missed something, Ian's middle name isn't mentioned in either. Is it from Hunters of the Burning Stone? Jack &#34;BtR&#34; Saxon ☎  18:07, 23 November 2021 (UTC)


 * According to this blog, Hunters is the story to provide "Francis" as Ian's middle name. 📯 📂 18:33, 23 November 2021 (UTC)


 * I'm not seeing where on the page it says that it comes from Hunters... The comic story's mentioned, sure, but "Francis" seems to be mentioned whilst talking about a story from a charity anthology, which we don't deem a valid source. Jack &#34;BtR&#34; Saxon ☎  18:54, 23 November 2021 (UTC)

Infobox image
I'd like to suggest this image for Ian's infobox image. -- Saxon (✉️) 15:59, October 10, 2019 (UTC)
 * Or basically anything but the current one. -- Saxon (✉️) 15:58, November 14, 2019 (UTC)


 * Considering that it has been two years and nobody has objected, the image being more compliant with T:GTI, as well as this being a less trafficked page, I've went ahead and changed the infobox from File:IanHaggardAUC.jpg to the image you proposed. 📯 📂 18:15, 23 November 2021 (UTC)


 * And I've gone ahead and changed it back. This discussion is not closed, and only admins can close such discussions. If you want to get something moving, ask an admin to check into it. There are a lot of such discussion open, and we can't follow them all. Shambala108 ☎  21:02, 23 November 2021 (UTC)


 * With all due respect Shambala, nowhere is it stated that admins are required to be the ones to close discussions. Typically, they are the ones that do, due to their bias-free role, especially in larger discussions; but this wasn't even a discussion, it was a suggestion, a suggestion that went unopposed for two years. And it is a suggestion for an image that more closely follows T:GTI, a policy which you have proven that you care for. What is the issue here? 📯 📂 21:59, 23 November 2021 (UTC)


 * It does seem a bit strange that a vote is required to replace an image which was never voted on. Jack &#34;BtR&#34; Saxon ☎  22:45, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
