You could solve that problem by not allowing pictures in sections that use bullet lists. Pictures are already a rarity in these sections.

On the other topics: It would be a mistake to change these sections to prose paragraphs like WP:DW entries.

Throwaway references are sometimes the only way we get to compile information about the Doctor and others in his universe. Because they're throwaways, they don't have to fit together with anything else... Yet. If they have the power of a one or two sentence note, they're easier to join up with the other pieces of their puzzle later on.

That's a strength of this place.

If you make the one-to-two sentence lines into prose, that will make them less valuable. We'll lose references that can't be connected immediately by the person who noticed them. The person who come along later, who can put in the second part of the connection, may not have access to the first part, or didn't notice it, or didn't realise there was significance to it.
