Where is this information coming from?[[edit source]]

We need to be careful with information that is not specifically given in the credits. What's the source for claiming that he's played by Gatiss?

Never mind; found the source. Placed it on the Mark Gatiss and, I think, VotD pages. CzechOut | 00:58, April 20, 2010 (UTC)

Name[[edit source]]

As this character is not in the credits, we have greater liberty to name the article. Would it not be more appropriate to name the character by his call sign, "Danny Boy", since that's a bit more precise? CzechOut | 23:57, April 17, 2010 (UTC)

Maybe we could call him 'Spitfire Pilot "Danny Boy"'? --Samoth 09:05, April 19, 2010 (UTC)

I think Danny Boy would be a better title, with the opening sentance explaining it was his call sign. Helloher (Death is not my phone number) 21:29, April 20, 2010 (UTC)
Somebody really needs to rename this 'Danny Boy', especially given his second appearance in A Good Man Goes to War. Tardis1963 05:43, June 5, 2011 (UTC)

Out of universe tag[[edit source]]

Article needs to be re-written from an in-universe perspective. It's currently written like an actor page, practically. All the stuff about Gatiss' past history needs to go, as does ref to "Series 5". The article needs to be framed as if we were writing a biography of the character. What does he do in the story?

Thanks, Samoth for a great job of providing the refocusing the article sorely needed. CzechOut | 00:59, April 20, 2010 (UTC)
You're welcome. Always a pleasure to be of service. Samoth 10:52, April 20, 2010 (UTC)
