Talk:Tenth Doctor

Suggestion for a new image


Sorry about adding the photo to the main image yesterday. I wanted to test it out, but couldnt change it back.

Anyway, the current image is not eligible for change until december 2012, which is long overdue.

I am not a fan of the current image. It is too big and makes 10 look weird with the glasses. Also, he is facing left from a weird angle. This photo, he is facing left, the lighting is right and it fits perfectly. Please consider my choice. Thank you.

 * I'm sorry but the suggested image broke so many of our rules that it had to be deleted. Please study our Category:Image policies before suggesting images. The main rules are that images must be given a license, be no more than 100k in size, be no less than 420px in width, cannot be promotional images. But there are more nuances.

 * Just pointing out that there is no "long overdue" change. The Dec. 2012 date was to prevent users from calling for another change so soon after a very very very long debate. There was no suggestion that we are required to change it now.


 * And your complaints about the current image being "too big" go completely against Tardis:Guide to images. Please carefully read that policy to see just how tightly cropped we want the infobox images.


 * Lastly, don't forget that you must sign your posts with the four tildes: ~ . Thanks, Shambala108 ☎  19:39, December 18, 2017 (UTC)

Spouse
Tennant said that Rose was a girlfriend of Ten, shouldnt she be listed in the spouse column? I can add sources if needed

 * No, girlfriends are not spouses, and Tennant is not an in universe source. Shambala108 ☎  21:08, March 24, 2019 (UTC)

Clarifying Rose-the-cat
I am going to move this to the talk page to avoid an ongoing edit war, even as I know that talk page debates take years to get satisfying resolution. But User:BananaClownMan's ongoing claims that A Rose by Any Other Name is set after Journey's End makes absolutely no sense.

The entire story is about the Doctor mourning Rose Tyler after she fell into Pete's World. The comic ends with the Doctor deciding he has to move on and get a new companion in spite of losing Rose. Early on, the comic was clearly meant to be set after Series 2. An offhand reference to the events of Series 3 brought this into question, so the timeline was then moved there.

But then, someone pointed out that a Hath cameos for literally one panel of a random issue. I believe the context is that the Doctor goes to a lonely hearts club, and there's a Hath there for literally one panel. BananaClownMan thusly believes that, as you could speculate that he spent enough time with this Hath to recognize one later, the comic must be set post-Series 4.

This is, with all due respect, asinine, and another example of why Timeline pages were taken off the mainspace, because they encourage an exacerbatingly incorrect reading of sources. No, the comic about the Doctor mourning Rose Tyler post-Series 2 is not set after he's reunited with her and after he loses Donna because a random fish alien cameos for one panel. Placing the story post-Series 4 makes absolutely no sense in terms of the story presented, and was clearly not the authorial intent. If it was, the comic would have name dropped Donna I don't know, once? And it would not have ended with 10 deciding to get a new companion after his final televised one.
