Forum:Series Boxes

Now a couple of days ago a member edited the series box templates

To go from this

To This

I recommend they be changed back and here is my reasoning 7th and final These are important bits of navigation in this wiki and there information is given in a confusing and False way!!! Joshoedit 02:40, January 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) The editor said that there is no difference between Xmas and normal episodes. but in fact 90% of Xmas spechails DON'T feature that series on going companion.
 * 2) the xmas spechails are also in a different year to the rest of the seires something that also needs to be highlighted
 * 3) The episode names run into each other Eg. Partners In Crime .Fires of Pompeii Not Partners in Crime * Fires in Pompeii
 * 4) The series 6 gap was also removed as with xmas this gives the feeling of one episode airing after anougher with no substanccial gap. If you go by production code series 4 lasted 3 YEARS!!! and with only 5 extra episodes then normal
 * 5) Mini episodes look full length
 * 6) Major confusion if a person hasn't visted the series page

So now its time for you to decide....

Change Them Back

 * 2) --Tangerineduel / talk 13:50, January 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * 3) --Revanvolatrelundar 14:05, January 10, 2011 (UTC) (agree with The Thirteenth Doctor's point and mini episodes should be included too)
 * 4) --Gousha 00:41, January 11, 2011 (UTC) (I think the sub-categorization also makes it look better)

Unsure

 * 1) Whilst I prefer the original version, the newer one also includes the mini-episodes, which although they are shorter in length, still count. If the original version made sure to include these in the series box, I think it would be better. --The Thirteenth Doctor 14:00, January 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * The orginal had mini episodes, Do you mean written in as part of the episodes? Its just series 3 i canged back to show on this forum and the original template didn't have a mini episode, mini episodes form memory where on the boxes but where separated from the main series like christmas was Joshoedit 19:24, January 10, 2011 (UTC)
 * If the original had the mini episodes included as well, then I'm all for going back to the original. --The Thirteenth Doctor 22:54, January 10, 2011 (UTC)
