Talk:Tenth Doctor

11 "misses" 10?
Someone edited the end of the Final Travels section to state that Sarah Jane asked the 11th Doctor if he "missed" the 10th Doctor, and that the 11th Doctor paused, implying that he did. I just watched "The Death of the Doctor" again, and at no point does this conversation take place. The only mention of the previous incarnation is that Sarah Jane asks 11 if 10 was okay, if it hurt when he regenerated last time. The 11th Doctor replies "It always hurts". I am going to update this section to remove the non-existing conversation. MrItty 00:06, November 17, 2010 (UTC)

Vale Decem
I understand that the term means "farewell, ten" (Thank you, BTW), but now I am wondering if the section would be better off with an English title, rather than a Latin term. After all, I think most users/readers would be confused by the apparant irrelevance of the title. Does anyone agree? -- Bold  Clone  01:49, December 22, 2010 (UTC)

10/11?
in the stolen earth/journey's end, the doctor is shot by a dalek and regenerates, albeit bypassing the change of personality and appearance by passing much of the energy to his severed hand. but, for the sake of counitng lives, would that not also make david tennant the 11th doctor as well? since the regeneration was technically used up. 78.148.90.94 21:34, April 24, 2011 (UTC)

Infobox missing
Er...what happened to the main infobox template of this page? 2.120.238.201 08:19, November 13, 2011 (UTC)

Very good question. Please put it back at once! Apart from other things, it contains the link to the list of appearances. 2.101.54.208 23:21, November 14, 2011 (UTC)

I put in a new infobox. The list of mentions is incomplete though, so that needs to be redone. Memnarc talk to me 01:24, November 17, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, Memnarc. Does anyone know if the list of mentions can be recovered from an archive/history? The infobox photo also needs to be retrieved/replaced. Can anyone help with that? 89.241.67.128 17:15, November 18, 2011 (UTC)
 * The infobox has been restored.


 * Basically, all you do is click on "history" in the edit dropdown. Then you comapre the current revision to the one before it.  You keep clicking on "earlier revision" until you find the point at which the damage was done.  Then you go the revision immediately prior to that damage-inducing version, and you choose to edit it.  Then you simply copy the part you're trying to preserve — in this case the infobox — and you go back to the current revision of the page.  Then you paste it into the current page, hit publish, and everything's all healed.


 * In general, it's best to take care of this sort of problem as soon as you see it, because there will be fewer revisions between the current revision and the one that caused the problem. If you're not comfortable working with page histories, I'd suggest looking at help:page history for a decent overview of the function.


 * Finally, if you really don't feel comfortable messing with page histories, that's fine. Leave it to an admin.  But do please alert an admin as soon as you see a major page like this missing an element as basic as its infobox.  A page like a story page or a major character page should always have its infobox visible, so it's a bit of an emergency when it doesn't.  If you don't feel confident fixing the problem yourself, it's a much better practise to directly inform an admin rather than putting a message on the talk page.   23:26: Fri 18 Nov 2011

A possible reason why Regeneration 10 was so destructive
Aside from it being because The Tenth Doctor absorbed so much radiation to save Wilf, His regeneration into The Eleventh Doctor might've ben so massive and destructive because he staved it off for so long whilst visiting his previous companions and, as a result of staving it off for so long, a lot of regenerative pressure could've built up inside The Doctor because he was in need of regeneration as soon as possible and all that pressure was released suddenly when he finally began to regenerate and the sudden release of who knows how much pressure could have made the regeneration so unexpectedly massive and destructive (Destructive to The TARDIS, that is). Just a suggestion, from 94.2.74.123talk to me 21:44, April 15, 2012 (UTC).

Main Image
I know we just did this for the Eleventh Doctor, but I thought it was worth bringing up. While I don't dislike the Tenth Doctor's main image like I did the previous Eleventh Doctor's, I do see a few issues with it. Firstly, when compared to the other Doctors' main images, it's just not as close up on his face. And secondly, the background is almost entirely a motion blur. Personally, I think such an important image should be as blur free as possible. So I've taken the liberty of scouring the Tenth Doctor's episodes for some alternatives.


 * The above one are mine. Out of User:Memnarc, number 1 is the only one I like. The others don't appeal to me. MM/ Want to talk? 09:06, May 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * Out of User:Mini-mitch's, I like 15 the best. 17 is a good "Tennant" face though. Memnarc talk to me 09:44, May 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * If we must change the photo, I suggest 8 or 11. OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 11:28, May 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * How far are people going to go with this? Do we do it for all the characters. I had dearly hoped for the Eleventh Doctor to be a one of thing, but since User:Memnarc decided to change the image and then do start a forum discussion, I had upload the images I originally choose when User:CzechOut asked me to add a picture. MM/ Want to talk? 11:34, May 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * I'm only doing what you recommended I do. And I'm sorry again for raising this issue, especially so soon after we went through it with the Eleventh Doctor's image. But it seemed like the Tenth Doctor's image was the odd one out when I was looking through the various Doctors. I just thought it would be best to be consistent in displaying close ups of the Doctor. Memnarc talk to me 00:01, May 3, 2012 (UTC)


 * I like 11, but I can't decide if the brainy specs are frequent enough to show the same way that the psychic paper or sonic is a part of the Tenth Doctor. Otherwise, I'd say 4 or 15 do well in terms of lighting and his expression. -- Tybort (talk page) 13:58, May 2, 2012 (UTC)

Okay, I won't really think any of these are fit for the main image. The only ''reasonably'm good ones are 1 and 11. 1 is out of the question because.... Well... It looks... So unnatural. Just... Weird looking. 11 shouldn't really be used because it has the speaks, but out of these it's definitely the best. (Unless someone wants to argue that his hair is important to his chareactor or something... OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 15:51, May 2, 2012 (UTC)
 * 11. Definitely 11. Not saying there might not be better pics available, but of the ones on this page, 11 is clearly the most T:ICC-compliant.   18:04: Wed 02 May 2012


 * 11 is a good one, but I also like #7 for clarity and brightness. I agree with with OS25 that #1 is weird looking, though I do like the TARDIS console in the background. Shambala108 talk to me 03:09, May 3, 2012 (UTC)

Enthusiasm seems to have waned pretty quickly here. Should we narrow things down a bit with a poll? I don't know how to make one, but there do seem to be some pics which are favored more than others. Memnarc talk to me 03:23, May 8, 2012 (UTC)

poll
Okay, so, sTate below which you like and why.

Reasons

 * OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 12:29, May 8, 2012 (UTC) 11 is the only good image here.
