'''Mark Gatiss''' has been a major creative force in ''[[Doctor Who]]'' since the [[1990s]].  He's written for practically every medium in which the franchise licenses stories.  His fourth and latest television story — [[series 6 (Doctor Who)|series six]]'s ''[[Night Terrors]]'' — aired in [[September]] [[2011]].  He is also an actor, and has contributed to both audio and tele-visual ''Doctor Who''.  While other writers have occasionally appeared in ''Doctor Who'', he is, in his words, "the only person so far to write for the series and be in it [at least] ''twice''."  Certainly, he is the only writer to have ever played [[Richard Lazarus|the central villain]] of [[The Lazarus Experiment|a televised ''Doctor Who'' story]].

Instructions for {{Doctor Who Wiki/Aotm}}
This is the part of the Article of the Minute series of templates that is actually placed on the main page. It has virtually no user serviceable parts. It contains merely the mathematical randomiser that is used to figure out which of the aotm templates should then be called. The only interaction an admin needs to have with this template is to increment the base number as more of the aotm templates are created. Virtually the entirety of this template is: 
{{aotm/{{#expr:{{random|26}} + 1}}}}

As of 13 June 2012, there are 27 different aotm templates. Admin should increment the number in the {{random}} statement to be one less than the true number of aotm templates. (The "+1" math recognises the fact that a possible result of the expression is 0, but that the first aotm template is {{aotm/1}}.)
