Talk:Star Trek (franchise)

do we need this?
most of the information here comes from Memory Alpha. we might as well just delete this article and include a link to there instead. --Stardizzy2 20:46, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
 * The information is generally related to Doctor Who and the "relationship"(?) between the two series.  On a side note, isn't Memory Alpha a wikia based wiki?  While it might not be advisable, it would be interesting to know if it's possible to redirect to a whole different wikia wiki?  --Raukodraug 22:05, 24 July 2009 (UTC)


 * yep. Wikia hosts Memory Alpha and Wikicode for some Wikis allows a direct link. how, I don't know. --Stardizzy2 23:43, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Nonetheless, this is the Tardis Wikia, not Memory Alpha. If it pertains to Doctor Who, then it belongs here. Incidentally a fair amount of the information in this article was added by me, and I never go to Memory Alpha. Since Wikia material, like that of Wikipedia, can be used anyplace, there's nothing wrong if material is ported over. Ideally it should be rewritten so it's not identical, of course, but there's no time limit on that. This material was originally part of the Star Trek article. Not sure why it was spun off in the first place. I'd support reintegrating it back into the original article. In answer to "do we need this" - the answer is yes we do because it's important to examine the connection between DW and the other big franchises, if connections exist. Ditto Harry Potter and Star Wars. 23skidoo 02:37, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Erm, what happened to the Next Generation references to doctor who? I know that alot of the information is similar, but that doesn't mean it should just be deleted should it. Just my opinion, but I think the last few changes to this, and the other star trek page took out a lot of information that should still be here.

David Soul?
I took his name off the crossover actors list. I know Soul -- better known for Starsky and Hutch -- appeared in a TOS episode, but unless he did some Big Finish work I'm unaware of, I can't find an indication of him ever doing Doctor Who. Of course feel free to correct me if it's true. 23skidoo 02:37, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
