its aboput the Cyber tombs article, i disagree that the cybermen entombed themselves because they were dying of a 'disease', thasts the reason why the cybermen cybernised themselves in the first place.

I thought a good reason would be a lack of constant power for the whole Cyberrace, i think the cyber controller refered to Mondas as the source of the constant power and now that this was destroyed the cybermen were desperately running out of a large power resource.

well thats what i thought anyway D:

The Cyber-tomb article doesn't say anything about disease.

As for why they replaced parts of their bodies to become Cybermen that was because Mondas began its journey away from Sol, see Spare Parts for the beginnings of that (or The Tenth Planet for the end of that journey).

I'm not sure where you've read this information concerning the disease with regards to the tombs. --Tangerineduel 13:43, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

It said in the article Cybertombs on this wikia saying that the reason for the cybermen entombing themselves was because of a disease Sclera1 02:36, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

oh sorry, i think there is another article of the Cyber tombs Cyber-Tombs

Well, surely one of these should be deleted. My guess would be Cyber-Tombs, because it's really quite awfully written, and has already been flagged with Gone to Pot. I'm also not sold on the actual name that's being used by either article. Where are we getting the very odd hyphenation from? Why wouldn't it simply be Cybertomb, since other Cyber things also have no hyphens: Cyberwoman, Cyberman, Cybermat. I mean, Cybertomb is already a re-direct? What's the source that's preventing it from being the proper name for the article? CzechOut ☎ | ✍ 06:05, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

i agree Sclera1 07:15, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

For now I'll redirect Cyber-tombs to Cyber-tomb the only text based source I can find at this moment is BBC Image Gallery Tomb of the Cybermen. I don't remember if the word is actually used in The Tomb of the Cybermen or not (but even then we'd have to trust whoever did the subtitles as in dialogue it's a bit tricky to hear the difference between cyber-tomb and cybertomb). --Tangerineduel 07:19, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
