Talk:The Tsuranga Conundrum (TV story)

Futurama connections?
So whilst watching this episode I noticed a couple of references towards futurama, but wanted to check here before adding them to the main page. The biggest one being the similarity of the creature to Nibbler, in that they are both small creatures with vast appitites that can (and will) eat anything. In addition to this, Nibbler was also the pet of 'Turanaga' Leela so I am also assuming the naming of Tsuranga is no coincidence either, but obviously there is no actual on-screen evidence to back this up. Thoughts? MadeIndescribable ☎  20:57, November 4, 2018 (UTC)
 * Turanga and Tsuranga may be a bit far-fetched. I doubt they were thinking of Futurama while scripting this. But I definitely think that there could be mentioned a similarity between the Pting and Nibbler. --DCLM ☎  21:05, November 4, 2018 (UTC)


 * Similarities to other works are not references. They must either be mentioned in story, in which case they would go in the References section, or they can be mentioned by the production team, in which case they would go in Story Notes with the source. Shambala108 ☎  21:12, November 4, 2018 (UTC)
 * What I meant was obviously in story notes, just to be clear. --DCLM ☎  21:23, November 4, 2018 (UTC)


 * Normally I wouldn't make the T(s)uranga connection, but with Nibbler/Pting being so similar it does make me think it was a deliberate choice. But without any confirmation I won't add anything to the page. Thanks for the replies.MadeIndescribable ☎  21:40, November 4, 2018 (UTC)

Plot
If you're going to add plot, please ensure you have all the details you need to write at least a mostly fleshed out plot, and not leave blank spaces. Especially not if you're only going to write a few sentences. I propose that the current plot should be removed until a properly written plot section can be added.

 * The point of a wiki is that everyone edits; it's a gradual process to add things to articles. Then, editors come along and proofread/expand etc. on previously added work. Every article is a work in progress - why remove content when that just creates more work when you can expand bit by bit until it is finally complete?

 * I would appreciate it if Masterpwn could cease telling other editors how they are to perform their edits. This is not the first time. Please make it the last. There are different editing philosophies and techniques, different rhythms and workflows. The absolute majority of them are not in any way deficient or disruptive. They are simply a matter of personal preference. And you should not impose your own personal preferences on others. If somebody else's style interferes with your own editing, you may politely explain this and request to find a suitable compromise. When the matter concerns wiki-related things, such as plots, I would ask Masterpwn to kindly leave the matter for the Tardis:Administrators to sort out. If you find a case too egregious to let stand, please refer it to one of us, rather than issuing directives yourself. Please keep in mind that you have no authority to do so and, as already pointed out to you by another admin, some of your demands have no basis in the wiki policies either.
