Hi! I'm Nate, and I'm a huge nerd. Nothing is canon, but Faction Paradox is canoner than NuWho. Paul Cornell still hasn't gotten back to me about how much he'll charge for the license to the maid from Timewyrm: Revelation, but when he does, the spinoff will definitely satisfy the four little rules. Obverse Books is the best current publisher of Doctor Who, and I will challenge you to Rock Paper Scissors if you disagree.

Disclaimer: I am aware of T:NPA, and I never intend to attack anyone through what I say on this site. If any reader takes unintended offense at anything I say, I sincerely apologize; feel free to contact me about it and I'll retract the perceived insult at earliest opportunity.

Things I'd currently like changed on the wiki
Big thanks to all the admins who have helped with things on this list!

Easy things
These pages are some of the many that I've prepped for renaming. (Turns out that my hate for redlinks means I suck at prepping for renaming, so.)
 * Chapterhouse should be renamed Chapter, since "Chapterhouse" is only used in PROSE: Lungbarrow and everything from TV: The Deadly Assassin to Extremis has called them "Chapters".
 * War King should be renamed The War King for the same reason that we have The Doctor, The Master, The Monk, and The Rani. (War King should really be a redirect to War Queen, since they're equivalent titles.)
 * The Hermit should be renamed Hermit (The Taking of Planet 5), per this admin note.
 * Zo La Domini should be renamed Zo la Domini because I made a stupid typo.
 * Maskmakers of the Pageant should be renamed Maskmaker, per Thread:195496.
 * Little Brother (Unnatural History) should be renamed Boy (Unnatural History), per this discussion.
 * Mortegathoth vel-Dvora should be renamed Mortega, since that name is only given once, he's pretty much always just called "Mortega", and there's no need to disambiguate the page (ie, per the precedent of Ace McShane being a redirect to Ace).
 * Kresta Ve Coglana Shuncucker should be renamed Shuncucker, since she changed her name to just "Shuncucker" after joining Faction Paradox, everyone calls her just by that name, and there's no need to disambiguate the page (ie, per the precedent of Ace McShane being a redirect to Ace).
 * The Remote should be renamed Remote, per precedent against using unnecessary "the"s, and since it's usually an adjective (ie, "a Remote soldier" or "part of Remote experiments" is used far more often than "one of the Remote").
 * Sabbath should be renamed Sabbath Dei, since that's his full name, and the page needs to be disambiguated from the other Sabbath.
 * The Doctor (The Infinity Doctors universe) should be renamed The Doctor (The Infinity Doctors), per the precedent used by other alt universe Doctors like The Doctor (Auld Mortality) and The Doctor (Sympathy for the Devil).
 * Big Finish Bernice Summerfield series should be renamed Bernice Summerfield (series) to match Iris Wildthyme (series) and Faction Paradox (series).
 * Yssgaroth's universe should be renamed Spiral Yssgaroth, since that's its actual name (given by The Book of the War).
 * I didn't come up with this one, but Gateway should be renamed The Gateway for disambiguation purposes.
 * First Doctor (The Brain of Morbius) should be renamed The Doctor (The Brain of Morbius), and everything from Second Doctor (The Brain of Morbius) to Eighth Doctor (The Brain of Morbius) should be deleted, per this (admin-approved!) discussion.
 * Dracula should be renamed Vlad III, and Dracula (fictional character) should be renamed Dracula or Kristoff Alucard. (Kudos to CoT to doing a lot of link-fixing for this!)
 * Clockworks should be renamed the Clockworks, since that's what they're actually called.

Bigger projects

 * Interference - Book One and Interference - Book Two should be merged into Interference (eg my Sandbox), per this discussion.
 * Virgin New Adventures and Virgin Bernice Summerfield New Adventures should be merged: see Merger with Virgin New Adventures and User:NateBumber/Sandbox4.
 * After Chapterhouse is renamed Chapter, Great House should be renamed Chapterhouse, and User:NateBumber/Sandbox2 should be renamed Great House.
 * The Infinity Doctors should be recategorised as main universe and The Infinity Doctors universe should be deleted, per Thread:209497.
 * The way we treat audio adaptations like Oh No It Isn't! and Cold Fusion and TV adaptations like Human Nature is completely incompatible with the much earlier-decided way we treat prose adaptations like the Target novelisations, all of which are segregated with the (novelisation) tag instead of the (novel) they deserve. Especially considering that, to legions of Classic fans in the pre-CD era, the novelisations were the official stories, it's time we give them equal standing (or dock all the other adaptations a few validity points, I suppose).
