 * This question is both spoiler and speculation. The only place on this wiki you can discuss this question is at the Howling:The Howling. Thanks! Shambala108 ☎  16:06, February 27, 2013 (UTC)

Oops sorry just exited! Thoth the wise ☎  16:09, February 27, 2013 (UTC)
 * No problem, that's why I gave you not only a place where you can discuss it but also the wiki rules so you know what is and isn't allowed. Shambala108 ☎  16:52, February 27, 2013 (UTC)

Vexing?
Before amending to talk about Skaldak's eye colour, I removed a bit about firing at an Ice Warrior's eyes, at it didn't seem to make much sense. -- Tybort (talk page) 23:18, April 13, 2013 (UTC)


 * ...and large black eyes (COMIC: Descendance); an enemy firing at their eyes was particularly vexing. (COMIC: 4-Dimensional Vistas)

Religion section
Part of the religion section seems to have gone missing. Sentence fragments - out-of-order explanations.

Main picture
Do we really have to keep the actual picture (Skaldak without a helmet) as the main picture ? It really doesn't depict the Ice Warriors as we know them... Chapeltok ☎  12:55, April 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I sort of agree. The helmet covering the face is part of the Ice Warrior "look". Most of Cold War is set in a dark submarine, so I don't know if there's anything in that story that's better lit than the black and white image we used to have, but it seems to make more sense to represent Ice Warriors as a whole with the helmet on, which is present in Cold War. -- Tybort (talk page) 17:16, April 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * New_Series_Ice_Warrior.jpg there really isn't an image that is better lit in cold war of ice warriors' traditional look, but the promotional image of Skaldak released on the official Doctor Who facebook page is the best image there is of the new series ice warrior right now. I think it would be the best image to use for the profile image or we could do what we did with the doctor page and have it alternate between the black and white image and the new series image.DalekSupreme13 ☎  06:49, June 23, 2014 (UTC)

The Silent Stars Go By
This page should be updated to include the information given in Dan Abnett's above mentioned novel, as it gives data which concern the future of the Ice Warriors, their code, and the fact that the Doctor at some point becomes a hero in Martian society. -- Graske  of the  Mandragora  09:46, April 23, 2013 (UTC)

Lords of the Red Planet
The paragraph describing Judgement of Isskar's honour and the Martians "giving things freely" says that this was before they became a warrior race again. Is this stated or inferred by Lords of the Red Planet? Because the rest of the edits regarding them don't go into any detail beyond "they were created by the Gandorans". -- Tybort (talk page) 18:05, November 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * It originally stated that it was before they became a warrior race. I added "again" because in "Lords of the Red Planet" the Gandorans create them as a slave warrior race (which could never backfire, could it?). JagoAndLitefoot ☎  18:19, November 17, 2013 (UTC)

Actually, it appears (I wrote some of it before I listened to the whole story) that all the Ice Warriors in the story, created by the Gandorans by forced evolution of the Saurians, are killed in the story. At the end, Quandril promises not to tamper with forced evolution and genetic engineering anymore, but the Doctor, knowing that the Ice Warriors will take over the planet eventually, speculates that he either did have some more Ice Warriors created, or that they eventually evolved naturally from the Saurians. So it is possible that the later Ice Warriors were originally peaceful. JagoAndLitefoot ☎  19:33, November 17, 2013 (UTC)
