TARDIS on the sub
What caused the TARDIS to dematerialize off of the sub?69.125.134.86talk to me 00:12, April 14, 2013 (UTC)
- Something called HADS. Basically, the TARDIS detected Skaldak's attack on the sub and it materialised to safety on its own. -- Tybort (talk page) 00:21, April 14, 2013 (UTC)
- Yes, I should have waited to post this until the end of the episode. Thanks. 69.125.134.86talk to me 01:04, April 14, 2013 (UTC)
- I'm guessing you're new to the wiki? Not that it's a bad thing, but I suggest your register, you'll get a link on your page to all the info you need, specifically where to ask questions about narrative elements (the article talk pages are meant for discussions about how to edit the articles only) And yes, if you keep watching, everything will be explained properly Geek Mythology ☎ 10:26, April 14, 2013 (UTC)
2.3 Expansion
Okay, here is my question. I know what class of submarine this was. It was a Soviet 667BDR Kaľmar (Squid). The NATO reporting name (and what is generally considered an appropriate translation to English) was Delta III.
I can show many legitimate websites with pictures as my source, and recommend reading, but it was never mentioned in the show.
So, though we know that was a Delta III sub, and we know what rifles they were using and what sidearms, is it canon? Can I go and edit it to say she was a Delta III class boomer or am I breaking the rules? Mobious 1 ☎ 05:16, April 14, 2013 (UTC)
I tried reading this page, http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Tardis:Canon_policy
And it just made me MORE confused, it claims there is no canon.

- In terms of what is added to articles, canon only really applies to whether a story is "in-universe" or "non-DWU". As for what is seen on screen but not mentioned by name, I agree, it is a little tricky. On one page I've added that Grisenko has a walkman, even though it isn't specifically called a walkman, but one of my deciding factors was that there was already a Walkman page. I wouldn't see an problem adding it to the episode page, as it is already a "real world" article, but I'd specifically add that it isn't mentioned by name in the episode, and make sure you give sources.
Hope that helps. Geek Mythology ☎ 10:22, April 14, 2013 (UTC)
