Sorry, for taking a while to respond, but "was heavily implied" is not a citation. Especially as we have an entire category of alien artefact collections and collectors of alien artefacts in the Doctor Who universe filled people and groups other than Torchwood. And I don't think we allow tie-in websites as citations, due to them failing rule one of the four little rules (although it's may possible we include the games on them with a degree of story, seeing as no-one's deleted citations to Security Bot that I'm aware of.) -- Tybort (talk page) 20:53, November 29, 2015 (UTC)

That makes sense, sorry for the bother. -- TheChampionOfTime (talk page) 21:42, November 29, 2015 (UTC)

The Ultimate Adventure
Is there any indication that The Ultimate Adventure et al. happen in any kind of alternative timeline?Fwhiffahder ☎  01:57, January 16, 2016 (UTC)


 * The BBC seem to think so as Face Value (short story) is clearly stated to be a sidestep. TheChampionOfTime ☎  02:33, January 16, 2016 (UTC)


 * What does that have to do with two Big Finish releases? Is there any narrative evidence that it isn't the normal Sixth Doctor? Would you put Instruments of Darkness in an "alternate timeline" too?Fwhiffahder ☎  02:37, January 16, 2016 (UTC)


 * It has nothing to do with the Big Finish releases, but if the sixth Doctor in Face Value is not our sixth Doctor what makes him a sidestep? The only answer I can see would be his companions. As for Instruments of Darkness, I would put it in an alternate timeline no sooner than I would put The Wrong Doctors in an alternate timeline for contradicting Millenial Rites, I'm not really sure why it was brought up.

 * "and then step sideways into other universes — worlds full of song and dance" The only story involving songs and dance in this anthology is Face Value. TheChampionOfTime ☎  03:03, January 16, 2016 (UTC)


 * But you're only speculating that it's because of his companions. There's no narrative reason to categorize either Big Finish release as alternate universe, is there? Even if Face Value was intended to be place in the NOTVALID universe of the stage play, the two audios are valid sources.Fwhiffahder ☎  03:07, January 16, 2016 (UTC)


 * Oh, I suppose that makes sense. The short story is in the Stageplay universe meaning the 2 audios are in the regular one. I fix my mistake right now!   (Although afterwards I checking to see if anyone has said something behind the scenes) TheChampionOfTime  ☎  03:21, January 16, 2016 (UTC)


 * I'd still put the short story in with the others. Yes, at the time it was written it didn't fit into the regular timeline. But Big Finish has essentially transplanted it by making its source material valid. Fwhiffahder ☎  03:24, January 16, 2016 (UTC)

Re: Dominic Glynn theme
Hi! There's nothing intrinsically wrong with your category, it's simply that all the stories the articles I reverted your revision on pertain to don't use it. Most of BF's output post-Jubilee uses the Howell theme for 6/Peri stories, as suits the period they are set within, so excluding Breaking Bubbles and Other Stories and Year of the Pig, they don't use the Glynn theme.

Voice from the Vortex reply
Well, it contradicted established events and characterisations, even the 2005 releases, plus no one seemed to want to talk about it, myself not knowing about it 'til recently despite it being up since the New Series launched. Just seemed like an invalid source that went unnoticed.BananaClownMan ☎  22:07, January 21, 2016 (UTC)

Damaged Goods
This wiki's policy is that adaptations and novelisations are supplementary to their originals. The novel and audio of Damaged Goods are considered the same story, and the Torchwood reference can only be considered valid if also applied to the novel. Fwhiffahder ☎  23:02, February 7, 2016 (UTC)
 * If I could butt in, this wiki does not not have any such policy as you refer to with regard to adaptations. Novelisations, yes, but adaptations, no. RogerAckroydLives ☎  01:39, February 8, 2016 (UTC)

Comic images
Hi! Thanks for the Titan comic images you uploaded. I've tweaked a couple of them to better fit with our image rules. Specifically, all images should be under 100 kilobytes. This can usually be achieved with a width of around 600 pixels. Second, aspect ratio should be close to widescreen. Third, images should be tightly focused on their subject, so they work at thumbnail size.

For example, take File:Claremont.jpg. In the first version, the image is really tall, and the extra height distracts from the subject of the image, Claremont. The second version is just focused on his face, which is what we want in an infobox image.

If you want to create the best possible images, especially from comic sources, read through Tardis:Guide to images, it's very helpful. 17:49, February 15, 2016 (UTC)


 * The Houdini image is too tall, and doesn't meet the minimum width requirement of 250px. I looked through that comic, and the best image I could find for Houdini was this. It's not ideal, but I think it's better than the current infobox image.


 * As for the other image, I'm guessing from the filename that you're trying to illustrate the reporter. Are you using scans of the comic, or the digital version? Because I have the digital version, and it's possible to get a closer crop without the helicopter or speech bubbles. 20:30, February 15, 2016 (UTC)


 * Yeah, it looks fine. Good file size, good image size, good aspect ratio. 20:51, February 15, 2016 (UTC)
