Hey [[User:Never Forget The Day The 456 Arrived|Never Forget The Day The 456 Arrived]], no problem, I was just checking. I'm aware of the audio situation, my personal project for the summer is to add the plot to the audios I have been waiting to listen to, in fact, I've already done a couple like "Hexagora" and "The Monsters of Gokroth", both of which I think involve the kissing category (don't remember off the top of my head). Can you run it past the admins? Otherwise, how do I clarify this with the admins? I was told there was a forum/board I should post questions to, I'm still a little new here so still "learning the ropes", can you point me in the right direction? Thanks!

Ah, I see. However, that page is not ''exclusively'' for the Gulliver from the Land of Fiction. Also, there is no evidence that Gulliver from ''The Mind Robber'' was Goth in disguise. --[[User:Borisashton|Borisashton]] [[User talk:Borisashton|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 19:43, June 18, 2020 (UTC)

:Cheers. I think ''Children of Earth'' is a contender for the best post-2005 DWU story and find myself most excited about Big Finish's ''Torchwood'' range, so I'm hoping to get to the stage where there is as much coverage of the audios as there is the TV series.

Hm, nice find, though, technically, ''[[The Day of the Doctor (novelisation)|The Day of the Doctor]]'' gets that merit, having also novelised the events of ''[[The Night of the Doctor (TV story)|The Night of the Doctor]]'', so perhaps the change ''is'' warranted.
But now, what's more in question (and perhaps a discussion that oughta be made in the story's talk page): do we really want to classify these 1-page short stories as novelisations? Sure, they "recollect" the overall events of their respective stories, but I'm not sure "novelisation" is a word that we can ''truly'' apply to them, is it?

: I can look into the code to try and add a second "based on", both for ''The Night of the Doctor'' and also because, with the revival of [[Target novelisation]]s, it's only a matter of time until we get novelisations for two-parters (and who knows if they'll be done in diferent books, or merged into a single novelisation).
: But, regarding the specific discussion for [[Spyfall (short story)]], I've shifted the discussion to [[Talk:Spyfall (short story)]], because there are now three people involved, so it's better to discuss it all on one place.

Individuals Who Have Kissed the Doctor Category[[edit source]]

Hey Never Forget The Day The 456 Arrived, I noticed you were making some edits to that page and was wondering, should we add classic companions to the list? Technically, Nyssa kisses the Doctor in Terminus, so does that count? Should kisses that happened in books and audio adventures also be counted? Just thought I'd run that past you since you've been doing some of the editing to that page. Hope all is well! DoctorQuoi 21:53, June 15, 2020 (UTC)DoctorQuoi

Infobox story[[edit source]]

Hm, nice find, though, technically, The Day of the Doctor gets that merit, having also novelised the events of The Night of the Doctor, so perhaps the change is warranted.

But now, what's more in question (and perhaps a discussion that oughta be made in the story's talk page): do we really want to classify these 1-page short stories as novelisations? Sure, they "recollect" the overall events of their respective stories, but I'm not sure "novelisation" is a word that we can truly apply to them, is it? OncomingStorm12th 17:44, September 26, 2020 (UTC)

I can look into the code to try and add a second "based on", both for The Night of the Doctor and also because, with the revival of Target novelisations, it's only a matter of time until we get novelisations for two-parters (and who knows if they'll be done in diferent books, or merged into a single novelisation).
But, regarding the specific discussion for Spyfall (short story), I've shifted the discussion to Talk:Spyfall (short story), because there are now three people involved, so it's better to discuss it all on one place. OncomingStorm12th 18:47, September 27, 2020 (UTC)
