Talk:Target Books/1994 and beyond

A little bit of contention about the title of this article 'and beyond' suggest Target are still publishing, however Target was absorbed into Virgin around the mid 1990s, so there should be a definite end to the Target era. --Tangerineduel 15:25, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

I'm going to disagree with this bit as Target Books (the publisher) did cease, and was absorbed into Virgin Publishing output, but as the title page of the last two Dalek titles, although published by Virgin declared themselves to be Target Books (an affectionately descriptive term for the range of tie-in titles) and part of the Doctor Who Library!. (I will be expandingthge publishing history and relationship of various publishers with the TARGET identity later)
 * As a brand, the history of the Target books extended beyond 1994, but while their is an obvious close to publication, their releases and availability are not as easily ended. Thats why I chose to end at 1994.
 * As the structure for these pages is still being evolved but along two seperate (but linked) lines of THE PUBLISHER and THE TITLES I would argue that and beyond is a useful inclusion that would allow further nostalgic themed events like continued availability, promotions and reference to the new series of audio releases that are a direct steal from the originals not the later releases.The Librarian 18:18, 20 October 2007 (UTC)


 * What I mean is within the layout you've thus far established with the previous pages, there is only so much information than can be (within the format) placed in this page, I think that the 'Beyond' section might more be suited to a page of it's own 'Target Books Further Development' or something along those lines. As Beyond suggests its still continuing. Perhaps the page following on from 1994 rather than being a separate 2 pages of Title/Publisher can be a combination of both? --Tangerineduel 08:06, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
