"Medtech"[]

So, as those of you who have seen Smile will know, this group of colonists have escaped the same catastrophe as those from The Ark in Space and The Beast Below. One character calls themselves a "MedTech" (I forget which one exactly), which is the same occupation as Vira from The Ark in Space and Liv Chenka. With all of these people being "MedTechs", is it worth creating a page simply to document this terminology or would it just link up to "doctor" or another synonym? Just raising this to check what people think. :) TheFartyDoctor Talk 02:18, April 23, 2017 (UTC)

Tardis:Redlinks clearly states that users "[should]n't unlink a redlink unless you're sure that the word does not appear in a valid source." In other words, most things in valid stories can have pages, especially something like that. 😊 OS25 (Talk) 14:55, April 23, 2017 (UTC)

Credits[]

I forgot to pay attention to the credits on original airing. Are they exactly as transcribed here? Is Kaizer Akhtar (Praiseworthy) excluded from the broadcast credits?

I've had another look and he was credited. I've corrected the page. --Borisashton 11:32, April 23, 2017 (UTC)

Enemies[]

Are the Vardi and Emojibots really enemies? They were just trying to help and it seems like the Doctor wasn't against them by the end of the episode, once he found out what was going on.

They were antagonists, until the Doctor managed to reprogram them. JagoAndLitefoot 14:37, April 23, 2017 (UTC)
Indeed, they were just as much the antagonists of the episode as the Clockwork Droids or the Nanogenes. OS25 (Talk) 14:53, April 23, 2017 (UTC)
That goes for the Sentient oil too. --DCLM 22:25, April 23, 2017 (UTC)

Infobox[]

What is wrong with the infobox? All that is displayed are multiple videos and nothing else. Scoobydooman90001 12:30, April 30, 2017 (UTC)

Don't worry, I've fixed it now. Someone changed the infobox from the Story infobox to the Person infobox, so I put it back to how it should be. Scoobydooman90001 12:39, April 30, 2017 (UTC)

Article missing a trailer[]

The article doesn't include the <removed per Tardis:Video policy> for Smile, so hope a mod can upload it and add it to the article. Flabshoe1

Emojis not showing up[]

A few of the emojis on the list are not showing up properly. Missing are the "thoughtful face" (is that the one with the eyebrows?), open-armed smiling face, the key and pound sterling. 23skidoo 18:05, May 7, 2017 (UTC)

Probably the device/system you're reading it on does not support some of them yet. They all show up properly for me. JagoAndLitefoot 23:52, May 7, 2017 (UTC)

Ear implants[]

So, The Doctor and Bill get ear implants automatically in this episode. They never use them again through the end of the series. Can we infer that the communicators would only operate on this planet? - UtherSRG 16:36, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
