Can people stop filling to 'Behind the scenes' with fanwank or potential classic enemies? This happened for series 5, and never came true. It happens every year. First, we get Omega or someone returning in series 5.... no, didn't happen. So then you go and put it down for series 6. It's ridiculous. Someone needs to throw all of this fanwanking into the crack before it consumes every article on here.
 
As far as the known facts are concerned, it's called The Silence, impying it's a new Moffat villain. The Silence has often been refered to as if it were a group of enities or some sort. But we have a voice, simple as that. Stop putting fanwank in the article ''just'' because we don't see a physical form. You might as well go and say it's the Rani.... oh, one of you probably already has said that. [[User:Delton Menace|Delton Menace]] 07:39, July 4, 2010 (UTC)
 
Nobody is going to listen to someone who uses the word fanwank, or who is too scared to sign his own name. It's like criminals robbing banks wearing balaclavas, too cowardus to show the world who they really are for fear of having to face the fact what they are doing is wrong.

== The Doctor? ==
 
It's stated that the Doctor was the one responsible for the cracks and here it says the voice was. Could we at least say on here at the bottom that the voice could possibly be the Doctor or some type of evil manifistation for example the Valeyard and the Dream Lord?

*Where does it say the Doctor caused the cracks? [[User:The Thirteenth Doctor|The Thirteenth Doctor]] 13:30, July 7, 2010 (UTC)
**In ''[[The Pandorica Opens (TV story)]]'' when they're about to trap him in the Pandorica the Sontarans, Cybermen and Daleks all say it was the Doctor Who opened the cracks that's why they had to trap him in there. --[[User:Vitas|Vitas]] 01:15, July 8, 2010 (UTC)
**the voice was the one controling the tardis and caused it to explode, the alience assume that the doctor caused the cracks because they think that only he can pilot the tardis. The voice technicaly caused the cracks because it wanted to cause the end of the universe, and purposly exploded the tardis. the alience dont know about the voice and all the evidence they have points to the doctor so they said it was him [[Special:Contributions/217.23.232.194|217.23.232.194]] 08:20, July 8, 2010 (UTC)
**But then the Doctor could have done it for some alterior motive such as saving the world from a real menace or doing it to pass a message on to himself in the past, like when he faked total death on the museum staircase. We've learnt now that the new doctor is not totally beyond screwing up the laws of the universe to try and save it. Like a policeman breaking the law to uphold the law.

== Davros? ==
The voice is fairly similar (though a little hard to hear as The Silence), and the motives and goals seem to align pretty well... --[[User:Witoki|Witoki]] 13:27, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
 
== Rename ==
 
Perhaps this would be better as the Silence. It is not conjectural, and has been called this several times both in and out of universe. Although we heard a voice, should that denote the name that we choose? [[User:The Thirteenth Doctor|The Thirteenth Doctor]] 20:16, July 21, 2010 (UTC)
 
Yeah, I completely agree here. Rossana refered to the Silence, the Doctor refered to the Silence, and Steven Moffat refered to the Silence. So, technically, that it's name. The Silence. Only fans called it the Voice, which is unofficial.
 
So yeah, we should honestly rename it to the Silence. We have felt (the pressence of) the Silence (in the form of literal silence) and heard the voice of the Silence. In both appearances, it came in the form of silence and later mentioned that silence would fall. So really, yep, we should call it the Silence. It sees silly not to.
