... we're allowed to do the obvious thing. We're not an author wiki, we're a fan wiki; if 100% of fans read it and go "Yeah these are obviously Time Lords," that's what our coverage should say, too. This is the principle which lets us go, "Yeah, the [[Great Houses]] are the [[Time Lord]]s, and [[the Homeworld]] is [[Gallifrey]]." So in this scenario, can't we just come out and say that the Gods of the Minyans are Time Lords? – [[User:NateBumber|n8]] ([[User talk:NateBumber|☎]]) 02:06, 8 March 2021 (UTC) | ... we're allowed to do the obvious thing.

:I think the Homeworld treatment requires that the ''term'' "gods" be used in the licensed story related to Time Lords. I did plan on making a discussion about this, but after the forum threads were back, since I wanted to have the original precedent to refer to.

::Hmm, quite right. As it is, the first paragraph of our plot summary for ''[[Underworld (TV story)|Underworld]]'' literally uses the pipe switch <nowiki>[[Time Lord|the gods]]</nowiki> to refer to the gods of the Minyans, so I'm sure that criterion is satisfied as well. – [[User:NateBumber|n8]] ([[User talk:NateBumber|☎]]) 02:31, 8 March 2021 (UTC) | |||
