Given the Torchwood website cited on the article [http://www.bbc.co.uk/torchwood/sites/arg/pages/episodes.shtml?folder=tw_case_ep09&tab=2&page=1 here], states in the letter that the guy names 'Banana Boat' script's last name is 'Davies' should this page be moved to Davies (Banana Boat), or just leave it as the dialogue established name? --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] 07:38, 9 February 2009 (UTC)


:I think it should be kept as is until further dialogue establishers his first name --[[User:Smokin Fish|Smokin Fish]] 09:33, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

::Okay, I can confirm that ''Pack Animals'' does not say Colin Davies, nor does it give Banana ''any'' name. A quick Google search told me that the cause of the problem may be [http://www.whofic.com/viewstory.php?sid=47027 this fan fic] ("Colin Davies, mate. But everyone calls me Banana Boat"). Obviously per [[T:NO FANFIC]] this is invalid, so we should definitely rename this page back to [[Banana Boat]].<br>--[[user:SmallerOnTheOutside|SOTO]] [[User talk:SmallerOnTheOutside|☎]] 08:58, July 22, 2013 (UTC)
 
:::No, wait. Going through the history of the page, an IP user changed the name in the lead [http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/Colin_Davies?diff=prev&oldid=180438 in this diff]. He sourced it to ''[[The Torchwood Archives]]'', which, being non-fiction, [[T:VALID|is not a valid DWU source]].

I don't know anything about the Torchwood Archives. Apparently people were saying it was nonfiction and so refused to change the page's name to "Colin Davies" since it was from that book?

:::I propose either renaming it back to [[Banana Boat]] and noting the alternate name in a BTS section, or keeping the name but marking it as {{tlx|conjecture}}.

Torchwood Archives/ Colin Davies[[edit source]]

I don't know anything about the Torchwood Archives. Apparently people were saying it was nonfiction and so refused to change the page's name to "Colin Davies" since it was from that book? See the archived talk page. idk, someone else can decide what to do. But it looks questionable as I'm doing my dig through, so I'm mentioning it. Najawin 05:44, 31 March 2023 (UTC)
