 ::::Have just grabbed a copy of DWM off the shelf it's [[The Curious Tale of Spring-Heeled Jack|The Curious '''Tale''' of Spring-Heeled Jack]].  --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] 15:33, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
+::Ahh, Tangerineduel beat me to the correct name.  Sorry for the redundant message, above.  On your other two red-links, we have a bit of a mystery.
+::*The difference in spelling of "Oakely/Oakley" originates from the Big Finish website itself.  The information on our [[Big Finish Doctor Who Audio Dramas#The Companion Chronicles|Companion Chronicles]] pages give precisely the same spelling as the Big Finish pages themselves do.  The question is, have Big Finish screwed up, and perpetuated a typo through the cloning of one page to another?  Or are there actually two different people here?   "Lawrence Oakley" is the the only that pulls up a page on IMDb, and his credits plausibly suggest he's the one we're after, at least insofar as the Music credit is concerned.  '''Someone should check whether the CD cover itself perpetuates this difference in spelling.'''  However, judging from the second season of Companion Chronicles, the Music Composer is also credited as the Sound Designer, so if I had to guess, my money is that BF have screwed up and the person is actually [[Lawrence Oakley]].
+::*As for Bathory, the "z" spelling is used in the text of ''Mangara'', so it should be the article name.  But a redirect from th e"s" spelling wouldn't go amiss, just because it's a common variant of the name and users might well search using that spelling.  '''[[User:CzechOut|<span style="background:blue;color:white">Czech</span><span style="background:red;color:white">Out</span>]]'''  [[User talk:CzechOut|☎]] | [[Special:Contributions/CzechOut|<font size="+1">✍</font>]] 23:29, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
