Talk:Unbound Doctor

Not DWU or alternate reality?
If he met the real doctor in a in-universe story, then why is there a tag at the top of the page? Perhaps we should treat him as a Doctor in an alternate universe who crossed timelines? Has anyone listened to the audio? --SOTO ☎ 23:25, March 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * We've already had this discussion (somehwere, in one of the forums) and it was decided that the brief mention that he earned in the 100 story was not enough to bring him into the DWU. If he had actually appeared, that would have been different. OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 01:51, March 20, 2013 (UTC)
 * That discussion was at Forum:Is the Doctor in Sympathy of the Devil of mainstream continuity because he appeared in The 100 Days of The Doctor? Please do not readmit the myth of David Warner, or this character's appearance in The 100 Days of the Doctor, to this page. 16:59: Sat 27 Apr 2013

New infobox image
Now that it has been decided that the doctor from Sympathy for the Devil (audio story) and the one from The Unbound Universe (audio anthology) are the same, may I suggest replacing the infobox image? This one not only is way less fuzzy, but also shows way more clearly the Doctor's face. OncomingStorm12th ☎  02:25, August 28, 2016 (UTC)


 * Oops, didn't see your messages. I already replaced the images with ones pretty similar to yours. 02:44, August 28, 2016 (UTC)


 * Oh, no problem. They are pretty close to each other anyway. OncomingStorm12th ☎  02:49, August 28, 2016 (UTC)

Rename
I agree this page might need a rename, but I absolutely oppose the use of Unbound to describe the universe which he comes from. Unbound Universe is a very ambiguous term, since there are around five more Doctors from Doctor Who Unbound. I know that Unbound Universe is the title of anthology recently released that made stories with him valid sources, but isn't the any other terms to describe the alternate timeline he comes from?

 * But then we'll have a problem if another story like The Unbound Universe comes out, only with the Auld Mortality, Full Fathom Five, or Exile Doctors. What do we do then? --Pluto2 (talk) 05:59, November 22, 2016 (UTC)
 * I Don't see the reason for the rename as it follows proper naming conventions of having the name in which he first appears in the page name as per one of the rule. Why is it up for a rename? Adric♥Nyssa∩Talk? 16:29, November 22, 2016 (UTC)
 * And, honestly, I really wish that the list of appearences wasn't created until the discussion was finished. In this case, only one link would/will need to be moved, but, had it been done to other types of pages, this could cause a lot of extra unnecessary work.

 * I'm fine with this, as long as it's entitled "Third Doctor (Unbound Universe)". This Doctor doesn't have a wholly different history up until the audios - it's the same up to The Night Walkers. This is the third incarnation of a different universe Doctor. --Pluto2 (talk) 04:47, December 22, 2016 (UTC)

"I Don't see the reason for the rename as it follows proper naming conventions of having the name in which he first appears in the page name as per one of the rule."
 * Not quite, actually. Per T:DAB OTHER, characters from other realities get dabbed by the name for their universe/reality, rather than the story in which they first appeared. This is because, often, alternate universe characters are introduced in the same story as their main universe counterpart. Not for any other reasons. But (Unbound Universe) probably isn't a good dab term, as there are multiple. Hopefully, a new name can be thought of. 05:27, December 22, 2016 (UTC)
