Forum:Unknown species

The discussion on Talk:Blue Humanoid has brought something to my attention. I agree that Blue Humanoid and White Humanoid are not needed articles, firstly because we do not know that they are definitely separate species, and because the individuals of that species that exist are included in the "Individuals of Unknown Species" Category. However, if you look at Red Humanoid, there is no individual. Should that article be deleted, there will be absolutely no record of that type of humanoid having existed in the Doctor Who universe. And since we are meant to document everything we possibly can, surely we should be documenting their existence? Mini-mitch suggested an article for every unidentified species, but it was thought that it would be too long. However, should length really stop us from documenting the information? If Matt Smith decided to stay until he was 50 years old, we would most probably end up with an article ten times the size of the tenth Doctor's. But we wouldn't miss out parts of his history just because it was that long. Every type of article should be treated just the same. They need to be documented somewhere, and if they're not, then we are not doing our job correctly. --The Thirteenth Doctor 14:23, February 17, 2011 (UTC)
