It's not a suit
Its a waistcoat


 * Thanks for pointing it out! I'll correct it now. 23:06, 23 October 2022 (UTC)

Is this the 14th Doctor?
Can we really be sure that this is the Fourteenth Doctor? We still don’t know what happened and there was a lot of talk about degenerating in this episode. Tennant might not be the Fourteenth Doctor any more than the Master was. And Gatwa’s Doctor will probably be known as the Fourteenth Doctor. 73.132.191.69talk to me 04:10, 24 October 2022 (UTC)


 * There's a BBC press release/website post that calls him the 14th. If they change it later we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. For now he's the 14th. Najawin ☎  04:16, 24 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh com'on, we all knew it would end up being David. They simply had no other choice considering how low the franchise has fallen over the years. XD--ModestyElyonLane ☎  08:10, 24 October 2022 (UTC)

Vortex Butterfly
I'm a little confused; how's the 'Vortex Butterfly' quote relevant? That's referring to the number of possible incarnations, not about 'revisiting' faces. TheGreatGabester ☎  12:07, 24 October 2022 (UTC)
 * It refers to the fact that the Doctor will have more than 12 regenerations, so it's become tradition to quote it on the page for every incarnation produced by a regeneration after the Doctor's twelfth. Whether that's a good tradition is another matter. – n8 (☎) 16:03, 24 October 2022 (UTC)

Paisley Tie
Appearance section states he is wearing paisley tie but it just isn't.

Current main image
The current main image is from the 60th anniversary preview. I thought images from previews weren't allowed? WaltK ☎  02:41, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * And now it's from the comic? How are images settled upon? Surely a grab from the Centenary special is the most obvious? FractalDoctor ☎  23:17, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Right now, in terms of officially released stories, COMIC: Liberation of the Daleks seems to be the best available image for an infobox. I'm sure it'll become a TV screenshot after the next episode, though. Cookieboy 2005 ☎  23:59, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I don't quite understand the logic behind replacing the still with the comic image; why is it the best available image, exactly? Because he's wearing a more neutral expression, or something? I can't think of any other reason not to use a still from the episode. TheGreatGabester ☎  17:24, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I agree. It might be because pictures where the subject is looking left are preferred, but that's by no means a requirement. Jack &#34;BtR&#34; Saxon ☎  17:26, 11 November 2022 (UTC)


 * I suggest you guys read Tardis:Guide to images and Help:Image cheat card; in short, it's a combination of a. the character facing left, b. it being a non-blurry image (the best images we can get from Power unfortunately are cropped in and don't look great resolution-wise), c. a neutral expression (something the Doctor lacks in Power, as y'know, his face is scrunched up in confusion). While usually images are chosen from a character's primary story medium, which usually is television... this isn't yet the case, as the Fourteenth Doctor's only story so far is a comic, and a scene at the end of another Doctor's episode doesn't really count.
 * The page will more than likely use a television screenshot eventually, but from the images available currently, the comic image is superior. In an ideal world we'd use a promotional image, but unfortunately this Wiki has weird policies that no other rational Wikis have, and we can't even change the policies as our policies are currently performing a Catch-22.


 * TL;DR: television ≠ (automatically) best image for an infobox. 17:33, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
