Should TV stories that aired on BBC television before there was a BBC Two actually have their {{{network}}} variable as BBC One? I feel that the "right" entry is "BBC tv", pipe tricked to BBC One. (There's also BBC One being BBC1 from 1964 until 1997, but that's not my priority here) Is that going too far? -- [[User:Tybort|Tybort]] ([[User talk:Tybort|talk page]]) 01:51, March 28, 2012 (UTC)

:LOL.  If you want to change ''An Unearthly Child'' through ''Marco Polo'', go for it.  Whatcha wanna do with ''Marinus'', though?  Say BBC tv/BBC One? {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}&nbsp;<span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">16:20: Wed&nbsp;28 Mar 2012&nbsp;</span>

If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.

Should TV stories that aired on BBC television before there was a BBC Two actually have their {{{network}}} variable as BBC One? I feel that the "right" entry is "BBC tv", pipe tricked to BBC One. (There's also BBC One being BBC1 from 1964 until 1997, but that's not my priority here) Is that going too far? -- Tybort (talk page) 01:51, March 28, 2012 (UTC)

LOL. If you want to change An Unearthly Child through Marco Polo, go for it. Whatcha wanna do with Marinus, though? Say BBC tv/BBC One? And, hey, if it bothers you it's easy to change from "BBC One" to "BBC1".

Eh, it was such an easy fix, I just went ahead and do it. Category:Doctor Who (1963) television stories now link to BBC1; Category:Doctor Who (2005) television stories link to BBC One. And BBC tv is now just a redirect, so you don't have to pipe switch.
