RE: An Unearthly Child
Hi. Thanks for explaining. I was aware that the pilot had something of the sort suggested but seeing as it is invalid on the wiki, I thought the broadcasted version must have suggested it as well. I was terribly confused for a minute there, thinking I had forgotten something (which, to be fair, is not an uncommon occurrence). Thanks again :) LauraBatham ☎  13:53, 17 April 2021 (UTC)

Cyber Foundries
I noticed a few days ago that you renamed Cyber-Foundry to the Cyber-Foundries. Wouldn't it be suitable to omit the from the title? I know the Master says "the Cyber-Foundries" all in one line, but I don't think that therefore the word the is needed for the title, like how pages such as Dalek Empire and Seal of Rassilon don't use the in their titles, even though they technically could. Thalek Prime Overseer ☎  11:14, 2 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the reply, apologies that I haven't replied sooner. Whilst I understand where you're coming from with regards to the name The Cyber-Foundries, I personally feel that the The in the name still isn't necessary. If somebody was confused by the title and, at first glance, they thought it was incorrect, all they would have to do is simply click on the page and they'd immediately realise why the page has a seemingly plural name. I'd like to start a further discussion on the page itself. Thalek Prime Overseer ☎  10:31, 11 May 2021 (UTC)

Imagery
It's not a weird precedent at all. We have often fielded complaints from people who say they'd like images of them or family members taken down. Fair use clearly doesn't apply in such a situation. 22:59: Mon 17 May 2021
 * "Fair use" isn't a privacy issue. And my removal of the pictures in questionn had nothing to do with anyone's privacy. Rather it was a matter of complying with the wishes of the copyright holder, and that always trumps the nebulous notion of "fair use".  When someone asks for an image to be taken down, it is. That's standard practice, no matter what wiki we're talking about. But in this case, it's also in Tardis' self-interest because we surely don't want DWM's legal team coming after us. Beyond that, it's simply the correct and courteous thing to do -- and it's something we've done on this wiki several times before. After all, we aren't entitled to put a single picture up.  We exist only at the will and pleasure of those who hold the copyrights for the topic we cover. Furthermore, there is zero argument at all which required these particular pictures to be uploaded as an illustration of that particular person. I'm quite certain others could have been found which would not have raised a single eyebrow at the DWM offices.


 * Finally, remember that Wikipedia have a much greater claim to being an educational resource than we do, and they're constantly taking down pics for copyright reasons. Thousands of pics get pulled from Wikipedia every year. Today's action was just a normal part of running wikis, even if it's something you haven't yet encountered as an admin. 23:44: Mon 17 May 2021

Mad (as in "Angry") Larry
He doesn't specifically mention the scripts (which, like Mr Saldaamir, had been available for free online for years) or the PROBE crossover, but it seems to me that his citations of Saldaamir and Eternal Escape are just examples in support of his real thesis that "you [should]n't buy any Faction Paradox material from BBV." So I interpret the entirety of BBV's 2020s Faction content as what he's decrying, not any of the releases in particular. – n8 (☎) 16:12, 7 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I don't think CoI is playing a role in my revision of the page, but I see what you mean; I don't think the decider here needs to be an admin, so maybe I'll try to drag in Borisashton or Najawin (PBUH) to break the tie, if that's ok with you?
 * Oh, regarding The Plot of the War, it's definitely summarizable, as you can see at the awesome DWRG page for it; but my thought was that there's little utility in a section which will likely remain to be added until the end of history, when a plot summary is already given (albeit in a distributed fashion) by clicking the links to the entries. The story-order listing of entries is already kind of unique for story pages on the wiki: we don't list tables of contents for any other book. But I don't feel strongly either way, so I'm completely okay with being overruled on this point. – n8 (☎) 16:36, 7 June 2021 (UTC)

The Black Dalek of Vengeance
Hey. From listening to Vengeance last week, there's only one instance (at least, I'm pretty sure from my memory) where the Black Dalek is referred to as "the Black Dalek", and that's by Magnus Drake. On all other occasions, it's referred to as "the Dalek Supreme". But more importantly, it's explicitly destroyed by the Master late in the story, with the Dalek Litigator explicitly stating immediately afterwards to the Master "you have destroyed the Supreme".

Besides, loads of stories featuring a Dalek Supreme of some kind refer to their Supreme as "the Supreme", and yet we know that these Supremes aren't all the same individual, what with how many get blown up, and stuff like the Dalek Supreme Council confirms that multiple Supremes can exist at the same time. The same goes for Black Daleks - they're a rank as well as an individual, yet they may be individually referred to as "the Black Dalek", but that doesn't make them the same individual. I'd say that the Master blowing up the Vengeance Supreme with his mind makes the latter separate from the Black Dalek Leader, because without some kind of indication of its survival, nor something bigger to indicate that the two Black Daleks are the same beyond the words "the Black Dalek", there's nothing that says the two are actually the same.

Now that I think about it, the Vengeance Supreme being called "the Black Dalek" may just be a simple stylistic choice, given that, in the animated trailer for Master!, the Supreme appears as a black-and-gold variant of the red-and-gold Supreme Dalek design from The Stolen Earth and Journey's End.

Davros (Unbound Universe) help
I'm trying to add an "affiliated with" section to the infobox on Davros (Unbound Universe), but for some reason, even after adding the info I'm trying to add, it won't show the new section on the visual editor or the preview. I've tried various edits on both the visual editor and source editor, and I'm getting nowhere. Could you help me? Thalek Prime Overseer ☎  16:09, 27 June 2021 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your help. I was trying to add four affiliations to the "affiliated with box" because I thought, what with pages such as Dalek and Cyberman having more than four affiliations, that I could add more than three. Is the difference because Dalek and Cyberman use "Infobox species", whereas Davros (Unbound Universe) uses "Infobox individual"? Thalek Prime Overseer ☎  16:33, 27 June 2021 (UTC)


 * I guess I could. It's probably not a very big deal, given that we could just swap out, say Kaled (Unbound Universe) from Davros (Unbound Universe)'s infobox and stick in Quatch Empire instead, seeing as, of the four key affiliates this Davros had, the Kaleds are perhaps the least significant, and therefore could just be swapped out. But perhaps it's worth a shot for the long run. Thalek Prime Overseer ☎  16:55, 27 June 2021 (UTC)

This is somewhat unrelated, but there's something else I'm curious about regarding Davros (Unbound Universe)'s infobox. Would it be appropriate to specify in the infobox's name that the subject is from an alternate universe? As in, changing the name of the infobox from Davros (as is the case for Davros and Davros (Palindrome)) to Davros (Unbound Universe) - just to be a tad more specific. Thalek Prime Overseer ☎  16:49, 28 June 2021 (UTC)


 * Alrighty. I take it that also applies to infobox sections such as "species" and "place of origin", given that they're also in-universe? In which case, I'll undo what I did a few minutes ago. Thalek Prime Overseer ☎  16:59, 28 June 2021 (UTC)

Master links
Hello, there.

I wanted to ask something that, no matter how I phrase it, sounds nit-picky, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to at least ask all the same; would it be possible to change the links for War Master and Spy Master to "War" Master and "Spy" Master. I think it helps illustrate that these are nicknames for these Master instead of official titles.

Also, do you plan to go even further with this idea, like "Saxon" Master or "Tremas" Master? Could this be the first stage of getting individual Master pages.

Worshipful reply
Its the “copied on the real book's” part that I have an issue with. To me it doesn’t read right and isn’t 100% clear in what it’s trying convey. Up until that point it makes perfect sense.

I would maybe change it to something like:

"Salyavin left a decoy in its place — really a copy of a human work of fiction, entitled The Hitchhiker's…, disguised in the real book's red binding."

SarahJaneFan ☎  22:54, 11 July 2021 (UTC)

Yeah, that's pretty much the size of it. Plus the fact that the title of the book had just been mentioned made it seem like the title was copied onto the binding, which didn't make a lot of sense. Perhaps that is just book-making jargon we aren't aware of, but the fact we aren't aware of it would be a good reason to use a different term.

Also I think referring to it as the "original book" rather than "real book" would increase the clarity so maybe "disguising it in the red binding of the original book"? Danochy ☎  23:00, 11 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Seeing your reply to SJF, I see you're now saying it's a different red binding, although your original post did say it was made using the same red binding, so you understand the confusion. Regardless, I suppose I better amend my suggestion to "disguising it in a red binding based on that of the original"? Danochy ☎  23:10, 11 July 2021 (UTC)

That’s fair enough, but this comment of yours did kind of imply it was the same binding, hence the confusion:

“by rebinding it using the same red binding as the real Worshipful & Ancient Law”

In that case, I would just suggest changing "copied on" to "based on" or "inspired by". I feel something like that would make the sentence far clearer. SarahJaneFan ☎  23:12, 11 July 2021 (UTC)

Tabular list of appearances demo
I don't know if you've noticed what I've been up to over at User:NateBumber/Sabbath - list of appearances and User:NateBumber/sortname, but I'm seeking permission to move the "sortname" template into the normal template namespace and implement this tabular list of appearances format over at Sabbath - list of appearances (likely in conjunction with a speedy rename request). I think it's a clear improvement over the existing format, as it can allow any reader to sort by medium and series like now, but also by release order and author. I obviously don't intend to replace every list of appearances at once – that would require further automation and SemanticWiki'ing a la Bongo50 – so my intuition isn't that it would require a forum thread to implement, but I figured I'd run it past a purplename before I just publish it.

Two points of query
Hi, just wanted to inquire regarding two points that have come to mind.

1. The Wyngarde Debacle In light of the new Wikify page, I went back to mull on the original No Self Ref. and actually came to wonder if a particular circumstance with the Peter Wyngarde page may toe over the lines of acceptability. Though not added by Wyngarde himself, long been since passed away... in my own previous revisions of that page, I opted to document the ever complicated tangle that is his birth date. (You'll see well enough from the page that it's quite a tangle!) Three of those sources - which were all from the same site over different period of times and notably inconsistent with each other - always did perplex me but being that of his official fan club, I'd pondered that they may have had the same level of confusion as average onlookers do with Wyngarde's birth details.

But just the other week, it came to my attention that the fan club website has infact been run by a Tina Wyngarde-Hopkins. Following that back, it seems she claims to have been romantically partnered with him for 30 years... and further to that, Wikipedia's talk page seems to contain some form of argument between her & editors there. Now, I know we have to maintain NPoV - but would there be some form of consideration to be taken when an individual close to a real person claims a key detail in their life in an unverified and often inconsistent manner whilst they were alive and now after their passing? I wouldn't think it 'taking sides' if we were to conclude that - by whatever manner and intentions, perhaps that of simply being told so by Wyngarde himself in those years - there was an issue with the inclusion of those as sources.

No Self Ref is, I will admit, primarily meant for instances in which the person themselves adds the information to the page or an editor does so on the basis of their comments, but like I say, I have to ask if this might also extend to this rather complicated case?

It's a rather tricky situation, and after thinking on it the past week, I decided best to refer to yourself.

2. Non-cis and Non-het RW individuals It's been on my large "Things to tackle when the Forums return" list, to get to the implementation of non-heterosexual and non-cisgender categories for real-world individuals. I was thinking when I drafted my list that this would likely need to involve the forums but it was later brought to my attention that in-universe categories for this already exist. With that mind, as creating them would be to compliment the existing in-universe categories - and since a large part of the forum discussion on those in Thread 271132 was actually to decide the need/significance of having those & the best suited naming for such a category - would it be the case that there is enough precedent for making those categories right now without a forum discussion?

The thread decided a significance to having in-universe cats, and that they should be named "Non-cisgender individuals" & "Non-heterosexual individuals".

So, would real-world cats in the same vein not be just as valid to add presently, provided they were named in the same scheme i.e. "Non-cisgender real world individuals" and "Non-heterosexual real world individuals"?

JDPManjoume ☎  02:48, 16 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your replies on both points. With that first point in mind, I will amend Wyngarde's page to remove the fanclub website, and note the rationale on the talk page so that it is clear to any others editing the page why those have been taken off the page. You made a good point re. third-party sourcing from actual individuals - I would've been better placed to say sourcing key information without further independent verification of the accuracy of the statements.


 * Thanks also for the reminder that the thread was at that stage of opinion re. real-world individuals, as I'd forgotten about that. I shall of course leave well alone on that for now.


 * Just as an aside, since it's just come up - please see the talk page on David Burton when you get a chance for why I wished to remove that statement for the moment. It was a matter of who added it, the best way to word it to avoid reader misinterpretation re. licensing, and the question of finding a source for the production actually existing.

JDPManjoume ☎  12:50, 16 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I'd noticed Najawin's sandbox just last night, hence my most recent additions to my list. I will probably move a copy of it over there sometime soon once I've cleaned it up a bit more. And yeah, the PoC categories are going to be a complicated situation. I've no doubts about that, but I think it's worth having the conversation to see how much can be untangled.
 * On the Dhawan vs. Delgado thing specifically, that had come to mind actually (as had Tso in the audios) - and I suppose my argument there is going to be akin to the point that this contention is not too dissimilar to the matter re. "first PoC Doctor actor". (Jo Martin, Daniel Anthony, Lenny Henry, Damian Lynch) All of those actors in both cases are, by an academic and scientific standpoint, people of colour. Thus, the approach I'd already be proposing for that would be that their individual pages note who is generally referred to as the first in media reviews and fandoms, whilst also noting the other people of colour who can be applied that title too.
 * This is the approach that is already being taken for a subsection on the Fugitive Doctor's page. If that can point out the technicality that Damian Lynch was briefly playing the Third Doctor as predating Jo Martin as Fugitive Doctor, then I don't see why the technicality of Delgado being hispanic and though not noted at the time, would actually be a person of colour, should throw any particular troubles.
 * As such, then it would be a viable path that operation of the category can include them all. I wasn't really thinking of those folks being an issue. What will be, however, the three major points of complexity that actually stand out to me would be that of Richard E. Grant, Marcus Hearn and of Peter Davison - who are all despite typical perception all mixed-race. Even if ultimately it doesn't result in a category add, it would at least provide something to point at in terms of it being considered & lay a groundwork that might one day be further resolved by someone else. Time will tell, as it always does.

Henrywaltertardis
Hi Scrooge,

I thought that I would raise a possible concern about User:Henrywaltertardis.

It appears that this user is editing the 2021 (releases) page based purely on the dates which have been given on the List of future releases, despite the fact that some of these releases have been delayed or the dates mentioned on the page were incorrect. For example; the user recently added the Iris Wildthyme story The Mermaid Menace to the 2021 releases page and stated that it was released in May 2021 - the release is noted for May 2021 on the future releases page. However, I cannot find any information that this publication has actually been released. Likewise, the user has added Lytton 4 and Orcini as having been released in June - again information which matches that found on future releases - but I am certain that these have not been released yet.

Possible breach of Tardis:Don't wikify your own material
Hi, I've been rereading some of the policy stuff just because I like to make sure I know exactly what is and isn't allowed and after reading this policy just now, I got reminded of a point in 2019 when I edited a page on here after another wiki user had done, only for someone to message me on Twitter asking why I edited it because they were the one who wrote that section (I was fixing an error from the book I had just read). The person in question is someone who is a writer of DWU content and the part of the article I edited was something related to a story they had been involved with. After reading this policy, I checked my Twitter messages, but they have left Twitter, so I may not have info on those messages (although they may still exist in my emails), but the user on here has edited a lot of content that they themselves have worked on and has also edited their personal page here on the wiki, so wanted to mention it to an admin, and because you're an admin I regularly see editing stuff, I thought I would mention it to you. ThomasRWade ☎  20:12, 8 August 2021 (UTC)
 * With regards to this editor, I have managed to check my emails and the time they mentioned to me about it being them was February 2020. However, this was in a private message and their profile on here doesn't mention who they are. They claimed the account name on here is a pen name they plan to write under in the future, so I don't want to dox them for it, but they are still editing pages that involve works they are directly tied to, as of August 3rd. This editor previously used an account with their name that is known publicly, but based on te Contributions page, their last time using that here was early 2019, with the first edit on the new account being late 2019. If revealing the information is doxxing, due to the nature of them telling me being via private message, then I won't reveal who it is (that's why I've been vague about the editor, to avoid breaking rules regarding that), but I felt it best to notify an admin that I had seen this happening, because I saw that policy last night.

Fandom projects
Hi! Got a couple of things:

As this wiki used to use Special:Forum, Fandom wants to make sure that old forum links and references aren't cluttering up maintenance special pages (unusedfiles, needed pages etc). Would you mind checking and letting me know asap as to whether that's an issue for this wiki? Just looking for dead links to forums in special pages, or links to images used in forums but are now dead, stuff like that. No need to attempt to cleanup yourself, I just need to know if they exist.

Secondly, did you receive an email sent last week I believe inviting you to The Downstream on September 10th? The email is titled "[The Downstream] Ask Fandom Anything, Social Media Tips, and Data Insights". I just want to confirm you received the email as we know Fandom outreach emails often land in spam.

If you could let me know about both of those things, that would be fantastic. Thanks! --Spongebob456 talk 09:43, 27 August 2021 (UTC)

Notable referencing issues on Vitas Varnas
Was doing a bit of research in a personal project regarding Doctor Who at the BBC: Lost Treasures, and in process, stumbled upon the note that Vitas Varnas has a thanks within that. In checking Vitas' page to determine a source to push over onto the release's actual page... That source provided some handy help - but - I noticed that the following; "Vitas appears in the comic Omega as a Minyan in a crowd witnessing Princess Malika put onto trial. He also appears in the comic story Goodbye To All That where he's seen on the streets of Soho, 1975." is cited with sources that are actually tweets from Vitas himself. Though the creators did acknowledge the first of those tweets in some small manner, I believe this would probably still fall under a self-ref issue as it is still using an individual's own statement as sole verification of a contribution.

Things only got more complicated from there, as reviewing the other sources, I then noticed that the initial citation for creating the page re. his likeness appearing in a K9 book - is also within this situation. It's a Facebook post from Vitas himself about it. The likeness may be clear enough, but I thought it was still a problematic thing and that it would be better to check the actual book for a proper credit.

As the editor in question - EpsilonGamma - had covered the creation and sourcing, I then decided to check their other related edits to see if there were any other similar situations.

EpsilonGamma's citation on Vitas' page re. Strangeness in Space is yet another social media statement from Vitas about being involved. And the DWU counterpart also has a similar situation for its sole citation.

The H.P. Lovecraft page also has edits that veer in this direction too. The Jonathan Green page, too, seems to have had such an edit.

Finally, there is a little bit of concern to me regarding the citation for his GameGrumps participation. Aside that linkage to an easter egg does not show he was a frequent contributor.

[Older revisions of the page also involved EpsilonGamma adding a birth date and year to Vitas' page, that other editors would understandably later remove for being completely uncited. This seems to have been cited on the 1992 (people) and 16 June (people) pages with a People Pill link, but that actually has no such information.]

I would normally deal with this as typical, but given the scale and breadth of the matter, I thought best to draw to your attention so that you can conclude the best possible resolution of these issues and can more officially speak to EpsilonGamma re. this.

JDPManjoume ☎  20:29, 27 August 2021 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the reassurance that it was a NO SELF REF issue - I've moved those statement to the talk page of Varnas' page, until any proper sourcing can be found. (Having just looked at Amaral's RW page, there was no issue there... but there was a citation that was failing NO SELF REF on the page of the in-universe counterpart that I've also removed for the time-being.)

As for sourcing either... well, looking at the Kickstarter page for Omega provides no information of whom the 24 backers who would fall under the 'likeness' perk.

And the Cutaway Comics website has no page I can find re. these backers. And neither their old Twitter (cutawaycomics) or their new Twitter (cutawayuniverse) has anything that would be helpful in that regard. Which is a bit of a stumbling block, not just for Varnas but also for Amaral, in terms of having them properly cited.

I agree that we could certainly count the resemblance without an outright name; because as you say, we have plenty precedent for identifying individuals grouped under one credit title (particularly in supporting artist territory) - though having now read the talk page for Amaral, I will admit I have questions about drawing a direct connection between two separate cameos as one whole character without cited authorial intent... but I will air those over there in due course, after I've mulled the implications of Bart Simpson.

(I did note, however, on the Kickstarter page but not entirely sure if we can take the wording offhand on that page that "our chance to appear in Omega #1! We'll need your image by early December, but assuming we do, you'll achieve Minyan IMMORTALITY at the pen of John Ridgway!" as to any definite statement on the character of Antonio being definitely a Minyan, but might that be helpful on that currently tangled BtS section?) JDPManjoume ☎  17:18, 28 August 2021 (UTC)


 * Both Amaral and Varnas are credited in the Omega comic series with thanks as well in the fourth issue of Lytton, however it doesn't say specifically it's them in the audience as I could only go by their posts to confirm this, and no one in Lytton I could see resembles Amaral. Would scans of the comic book credits uploaded to the wiki be considered a reliable source? EpsilonGamma ☎  09:46, 30 August 2021 (UTC)

The Merge of Morbius
Hey Scrooge, hope you're well! I enjoyed scrolling through the Morbius incarnation pages this morning and it reminded me of something which was floated several years back but never decided or implemented: that it might be within the bounds of current policy and standing admin decisions to conclude that the Imperator is the First Morbius. Sadly the forums are currently inaccessible, but as I recall it, the case of the Imperator went unaddressed in the original debate(s), and while it's easy to compare him to the Master and the War King (which were decided to stand apart, given the state of evidence at that time), I think his character is much more comparable to the Homeworld and "the Ship" from Toy Story, each of which the wiki positively affirms with their DWU equivalents. I'm curious what you think; given today's changes to Morbius, it would be an easy and unobtrusive integration. – n8 (☎) 19:00, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Very eloquently explained. I definitely see what you're saying regarding mixing precedents.

Testing a new template
Hello Scrooge. I have been working on some small additions to at  in order to set up some Semantic MediaWiki for another template idea and I'm at the stage where I really need to test this infobox on some actual pages. It should look no different visually but has a few changes behind the scenes. Would I be able to test the infobox on the articles in the following list? Bongo50 (aka Bongolium500) ☎  15:26, 19 November 2021 (UTC)
 * The Daleks (TV story)

 * Rosa (TV story)
 * The Eight Doctors (novel)
 * Mr Saldaamir (short story)
 * Skywatch-7 (comic story)
 * The Klepton Parasites (comic story)
 * The Lonely Assassins (video game)


 * Thanks for the approval. I don't think it would be great to place on the pages as some of them are very large and high-traffic pages. Would a comment in the wikitext suffice, similar to how it is done on Regeneration? Bongo50 (aka Bongolium500)  ☎  20:26, 19 November 2021 (UTC)


 * The tests so far have gone quite well and I've managed to iron out a good few issues. Would I also be able to test the template on the following pages?
 * Doctor Who in an Exciting Adventure with the Daleks (novelisation)
 * The Dreadful Flap (short story)
 * Rise and Fall (audio story)
 * Martha Jones' MySpace blog (short story)
 * Bongo50 (aka Bongolium500) ☎  17:52, 22 November 2021 (UTC)

Regarding the validity of the short story 'Rescue' from the 1995 yearbook
Just today whilst browsing the wiki, I started down a rabbit hole of looking into the possible validity of Rescue, a short story published as part of the Doctor Who Yearbook 1995 that provided the backstory to Cyrian, Samuel West's character in the 1993 charity special Dimensions in Time. After some initial ground research into the matter I contended that the story appeared to me to fall in line with the 4 Rules, and I was advised to contact an admin, with yourself listed as an example, if I had, and I quote, "read the story, and [verified] it cann[sic] standalone without the context of DiT".

I am writing to you now to inform you that, after a number of hours attempting to reliably and accurately source a copy of the annual and having thoroughly read through the story start to finish, it is with a not inconsiderable amount of personal satisfaction that I can confirm ardently that this is in fact the case. Beyond the name of the character and Samuel West's picture taken from DiT, there is absolutely no reference to the events of that story in any way shape or form (the story is entirely self-contained, only portraying the events of Cyrian's rescue on the planetoid and stopping just short of actually showing Cyrian's first meeting with the Rani), and it is on this basis that I respectfully request the reconsideration by the wiki administration of this short story's status as a valid source. 88.211.77.22talk to me 23:01, 24 November 2021 (UTC)


 * I would advise you to create an actual named account on this Wiki before pursuing such endeavours as this; for one thing, this would award you the use of an actual user talk page, rather than leave me to reply to you here.


 * At any rate, your efforts are well-appreciated, but I would be curious to get more background to who told you to simply "contact an admin" (such as myself) about this. The normal procedure for validating a hitherto-invalid short story based on new evidence is in fact an inclusion debate in the Forums. There are circumstances where this can be circumvented, but not arbitrarily and not without a solid rationale. Scrooge MacDuck ⊕ 23:13, 24 November 2021 (UTC)


 * Understood. So just to be clear, how would I go about that?  I'm not too familiar with the new Forums. 88.211.77.22talk to me 09:18, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

The En Sentac Identity
As I have just posted on her talk page, I believe enough infomation has been revealed about the Division to warrant re-examining En Sentac's status as a supposed Time Lord, since they is very little infomation in the story itself to come to that conclution giving what has been revealed in recent chapters. By the original logic, Lee Clayton should still be listed as a Gallifreyan like Gat, since it is similiary implied that he was in his appearence. BananaClownMan 10:33, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

Moving away from Fandom (better host)
Hi, before you click away and think I'm a spammer please just hear me out. I personally quite like Doctor Who and am disappointed that the only wiki that exists is on Fandom. I'm also a user on Miraheze which is a (free and no ads at all) and much better wiki hosting site than Fandom. All I'd like is for you to give Miraheze a chance and simply consider moving away from Fandom and transferring this wiki to Miraheze (it's really easy to do that).

Hi Scrooge,

I wanted to ask whether you thought a page for the Altered Vistas site would be acceptable.

Off-topic megathread for discussions
So I’ve seen a few wikis with off-topic megathreads (Jurassic Park wiki being one example, with the “Chaos Zone”), which are basically discussions threads where users can post whatever they want that is not related to the subject of the wiki (in this case, posts unrelated to Doctor Who) in the replies to that thread. We could put it in the Tardis wiki category, so it’s easier to find, and we can tell users about it whenever a discussion is or goes off-topic. Maybe we could call it “The Void” too, as it is technically outside of “the universe of the wiki”, as the void was outside the universe of Doctor Who. What do you think about this idea? (P.S I asked Shambala about this, but she didn’t respond at all despite being online to block someone yesterday, that’s why I’m asking you) GaganTopia ☎  20:26, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

Main characters
Hi there, Scrooge. I wonder if you could give me or direct me to a bit of guidance about how we decide who goes in the Main Character field of story infoboxes for audios. Jack &#34;BtR&#34; Saxon ☎  15:54, 26 February 2022 (UTC)


 * So, the first three Gallifrey releases credit "Lalla Ward and Louise Jameson with John Leeson", so their characters are listed as Main for those stories. This excludes Narvin (who has appeared in all but two Gallifrey stories so far, I believe, but isn't listed as a Main Character on this wiki until Gallifrey: Time War 1) and Braxiatel, who are almost exclusively put in the Featuring field for the range.


 * I figured that Narvin and Brax have been put in Featuring because Sean Carlsen and Miles Richardson weren't credited on the cover like Ward, Jameson and Leeson, but their names have been on them (when they appear) since Gallifrey IV. In stories in which they play a major role, should they be listed as Main Characters as well? Jack &#34;BtR&#34; Saxon ☎  16:06, 26 February 2022 (UTC)


 * So the Main Characters are the ones on the front cover. Does that mean that Narvin should be listed as a Main Character when Carlsen's name starts being put on the front covers, then?
 * Another issue is with K9. John Leeson's name is on the front cover of the first two stories, in which Mark I has a big role but Mark II makes only brief appearances. Should both K9s be listed as Main?
 * Also, in A Blind's Eye, Leeson is credited on the cover but K9 appears in only one scene. Currently he's in Featuring, but should he be moved to Main? And should Sissy Pollard be in Main if she's only a one-off character but India Fisher's name is on the cover? Jack &#34;BtR&#34; Saxon ☎  16:44, 26 February 2022 (UTC)


 * Ah, okay. In which case, I'm terribly confused about where we draw the line between a main character and a major regular character... Jack &#34;BtR&#34; Saxon ☎  21:35, 26 February 2022 (UTC)

Parallel universes in infoboxes
When it comes to infoboxes regarding things from parallel universes/alternate timelines, is it appropriate to specify within certain parts of the infobox, e.g. a character's species or place of origin, is within an alternate reality?

I was just wondering this while looking at the infobox for Davros (Unbound Universe). For his place of origin, I've worded it as "Skaro (Unbound Universe)" to specify that he's from the Skaro of the Unbound Universe; if I left it simply as "Skaro", I feel that there's a chance viewers could misinterpret his origin as the Skaro of N-Space. Should I leave it like this or remove it? And if it's appropriate to keep it, should I also add "(Unbound Universe)" to sections such as Davros's species (i.e. "Kaled (Unbound Universe)") and his affiliations (i.e. "Daleks (Unbound Universe)")?

I should also mention that I know that, in this context, the phrase "(Unbound Universe)" would normally not be used due to it not being used in such a manner in-universe (i.e. the Kaleds of the Unbound Universe are not referred to in-universe as "Kaleds (Unbound Universe)"). However, I believe such a phrase could be acceptable in an infobox if I alter the links so that the first instance of the phrase "(Unbound Universe)" being used in an infobox section, it would link to the page Unbound Universe, and any repeat instances of the phrase would simply not link to that page to avoid unnecessary repetition. E.g. the species section in Davros (Unbound Universe)'s infobox could be formatted as "Kaled (Unbound Universe)", and then his place of origin (for example) could be formatted as "Skaro (Unbound Universe)" - actually this is already formatted this way on Davros (Unbound Universe), but I want to be sure whether it's correct or not. What do you think? Thalek Prime Overseer ☎  22:18, 25 March 2022 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the reply. I'll bear that in mind whenever I do any editing on parallel universe stuff. Gonna edit the pages regarding Davros (Unbound Universe) first. Thalek Prime Overseer ☎  15:56, 3 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Actually, just one other thing: does this also apply to other infobox sections? E.g. the "used by" section - should I use brackets to denote a parallel universe, or stick with commas? Thalek Prime Overseer ☎  16:28, 3 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Ah okay, apologies. Thanks for your help! Thalek Prime Overseer ☎  16:43, 3 April 2022 (UTC)
