I seem to have some problems with some of these buttons at the moment, so I am using this method to explain to you why I have undone your revision. While it is true that other actors have played the character under conditions in which the character is given a different name -- "Melody Pond" or "The Little Girl", they are all the same character; one which we have chosen the page-name of "River Song" for, even though we note other appellations elsewhere, starting with the first line of the article in which we note that her name is -- quoting from memory -- "Melody 'Mels' Pond' later River Song." If you will look at the talk page, you will see a long and grouchy discussion of what we should call this character. You may wish to review it.

You may notice that in the body of the article, I have attempted to write it so the character is referred to by what she was called in the episode -- and have titled one heading as "Becoming River Song".

I think it likely that this will not entirely please you. It does not entirely please us. Nonetheless, we have reached a sort of concensus. I ask you to honor it until it changes drastically. Boblipton talk to me 22:59, April 1, 2012 (UTC)
