You will note that none of the content of the front page is actually on the front page. For ease of maintenance, all sections of the front page are in a template of their own. Those templates follow the naming pattern {{Doctor Who Wiki/Section Name}}. When those templates are used on this page — and ONLY when they're used on this page — they can be called by dropping "Doctor Who Wiki", as with {{/Section Name}}. This is achieved by linking the subpage with the name of a section to the template with that name. Thus, there is the article subpage: Doctor Who Wiki/Comics and the template page, Template:Doctor Who Wiki/Comics. If you create a new section, you need to create both an article subpage and a template page of the same names. Changing the name of the front page will turn the page into a series of red links.

New sections can be created, inspected, and vetted before they appear on the front page.

A Time storm was a method of time/space transportation that could be viewed and experienced in many forms. Typically it was directly experienced by the people being taken through time as a swirl of coloured light, and unlike traversing the vortex in a TARDIS it was a tangible experience. (DW: Silver Nemesis)
Fenric took Ace through time in a time storm from her home town in Perivale, Earth to Iceworld, Svartos in order that she would meet the Seventh Doctor and then come to be of use in the final game against the Doctor. (DW: Dragonfire, The Curse of Fenric)
Fenric also took Lady Peinforte and her manservant Richard Maynarde from 1638 to 1988 in order to manipulate them into gathering the Nemesis statue. (DW: Silver Nemesis)
In 2010 Elizabeth Meadows said that a temporal storm damaged a Cyberman ship and caused it to crash to the Arctic Circle ten thousand years prior. (VG: Blood of the Cybermen) in (VG: eternity clock the time storm was seen in the eternity clock and the daleks cybermen silurians and the silents wanted to use th
