:::I'll also add again that I'd advise against solely relying on one the clivebanks website (as with the DW Ref Guide you should also rely on what you've read in the books, or seen/heard etc). Also as with the DW Ref Guide you shouldn't be copying verbatim what is written on that site. The timeline is tricky and should be written as part of an informed opinion rather than copying from one site or another. Thanks --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] 13:21, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

  • Name: Frogger 2

Timeline

Hi, when adding / editing content in the timeline, please do not remove the prefixes to the stories that are listed there. --Tangerineduel 17:15, 26 January 2009 (UTC) What's a prefix --Frogger 2 26 January 2009 (UTC)

You have been warned about removing the prefix and below is guide of prefixes Bigshowbower 09:47, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

DW: for the tv series both classic and new series
TW: for Torchwood
SJA: for the Sarah Jane Adventures
PDA: for the Past Doctor Adventures line of novels
EDA: for the Eight Doctor Adventures line of novels
NDA: for the Ninth Doctor Adventures line of novels
TDA: for the Tenth Doctor Adventures line of novels
MA: for the Virgin Missing Adventures line of novels
NA: for the Virgin New Adventures line of novels


Also see for a complete list Tardis:List of prefixes.
Additionally I'm curious as to where you are sourcing the placement of the stories? Is it guess work, indications in the individual stories or the Doctor Who Reference Guide? I would caution against solely relying on the DW Ref Guide as several of their placements are arbitrary. --Tangerineduel 11:56, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
Righty, but have you actually read the books, novels, etc that you're editing as some of them that you've edited I have and worked out how to place them by how it's mentioned.
I'll also add again that I'd advise against solely relying on one the clivebanks website (as with the DW Ref Guide you should also rely on what you've read in the books, or seen/heard etc). Also as with the DW Ref Guide you shouldn't be copying verbatim what is written on that site. The timeline is tricky and should be written as part of an informed opinion rather than copying from one site or another. Thanks --Tangerineduel 13:21, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
