 [[File:Doctors template 2019-11.jpg|thumb|380px]]
 ::For clarity's sake, the image to my right is how, in my experience, the template shows up in ns0, otherwise known as the main namespace (where the articles are). Is the above request because of a problem in the article namespace, or due to a perceived problem arising from the difference in font in the template namespace? Does it look different on other devices/browsers?{{User:SOTO/sig}} 17:26, October 21, 2019 (UTC)
+:::I think the line break before 12 is intentional: Prior to The Timeless Children, we understood the Doctor to have 12 regenerations, and so the first line represents the "original" Doctor and his 12 regens (minus the meta-crisis). The next line represents the next cycle of regenerations. However, now that we know something new, this might need to be re-examined. I'm going to update my proposed changes (see link in discussion below) to break after 8. - [[User:UtherSRG|UtherSRG]] [[User talk:UtherSRG|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 03:26, March 6, 2020 (UTC)
 ==Fugitive Doctor==
 For now, the incarnation from Fugitive of the Judoon fits as an ambiguous incarnation, and I think it would be easier to get to her page if she is there in the template. I think we should add her there. [[User:DenisLuiz|DenisLuiz]] [[User talk:DenisLuiz|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 02:52, February 1, 2020 (UTC)

+: I'm seconding this. After the revelation of Season 12 and the "Timeless Child" arc, it would make sense to add links to Ruth ([[The Doctor (Fugitive of the Judoon)]]), as well as the [[Timeless Child]]. Possibly the "Morbius" Doctor's as well, although that should definitely be up for debate.

+While I agree the "Fugitive" Doctor should be added to this template, I think her placement should be in the "Widely Accepted" portion. She's way less ambiguous than the ones in the ambiguous list. Only her placement in the list of regenerations is now in any serious question. I agree that the "Morbius" Doctors are also less ambiguous now. - [[User:UtherSRG|UtherSRG]] [[User talk:UtherSRG|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 23:02, March 4, 2020 (UTC)
 ==My contribution==
 [[:User:CdeDBD/Template:Doctors]] In case it helps thinking and discussion! [[User:CdeDBD|DBD]] [[User talk:CdeDBD|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 16:27, March 2, 2020 (UTC)
+:I've also taken a stab at an update: [[:User:UtherSRG/Template:Doctors]] - [[User:UtherSRG|UtherSRG]] [[User talk:UtherSRG|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 23:17, March 4, 2020 (UTC)
+::I think Doctors 1&ndash;13 need to be prioritized and placed at the top like they are currently. I'd avoid suggesting the other known incarnations are pre-Hartnell because we only know that ''with certainty'' for the Children. Not sure about the addition of The Other&mdash;I kind of assumed if that wasn't there already, it was because it's already been discussed and consensus was they shouldn't be included. With Series 12 revealing the Timeless Children, Jo Martin's "Fugitive" Doctor and the ''Morbius'' Doctors as unambiguous incarnations of [[The Doctor]] (whether or not they used that name), I think if we add these to the navbox, the Curator fits better with them than with the other four "ambiguous" incarnations currently listed. He is meant as an incarnation of the same being, whereas they are more "offshoots". [[User:Toqgers|Toqgers]] [[User talk:Toqgers|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 05:57, March 5, 2020 (UTC)
+:::Hrm. You're right. "The Other" may not be pre-Hartnell and may not fit this box at all. I too think The Curator has as strong a connection as the "Fugitive" and the ''Morbius'' Doctors. I also agree on leaving the 1&ndash;13 Doctors on top. With these changes, I think the three sections need some renaming, too. I've update my attempt, at the same link above. - [[User:UtherSRG|UtherSRG]] [[User talk:UtherSRG|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 06:29, March 5, 2020 (UTC)
+:::I've also now rebalanced the lists, per the discussion preceding this one. - [[User:UtherSRG|UtherSRG]] [[User talk:UtherSRG|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 03:28, March 6, 2020 (UTC)
+::::[[User:UtherSRG]] Ok great. I'm as happy with your proposal or mine. How do we get an edit made? Summon an admin? [[User:CdeDBD|DBD]] [[User talk:CdeDBD|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 13:37, May 8, 2020 (UTC)
+== Dr. Who link is incorrect ==
+Sometime ago, [[Dr. Who]] was changed to be a redirect to [[The Doctor]], but the link on the template wasn't changed, meaning that link goes to [[The Doctor]] instead of [[Dr. Who (Dr. Who and the Daleks)]] like it should.
