Missing Time Lords[[edit source]]
I noticed Irving Braxiatel and Iris Wildthyme (probably among others) are missing from this template. This despite Braxiatel being part of another Time Lord template for the High Council of Time Lords. Before adding them, I thought I'd ask why they are missing first.

Deletion[[edit source]]
I strongly believe this template should be deleted. It clearly violates T:NPOV, as it only displays Time Lords who appeared on TV stories, and would obviously be too big to include all time lords who ever appeared.
But what good is a template when it can't provide good information? This navbox fails to show a reader Time Lords with several appearances, such as Irving Braxiatel, Iris Wildthyme, Narvin, while unnamed Time Lords who have only one appearance are present, such as Second Time Lord (The War Games) and Time Lord 1 (Colony in Space).

- I don't have a problem with the proposed deletion, but I had to remove the tag. When a delete tag is put on a template page, the delete message shows up on every page that has the template. Maybe start a discussion on Board:The Panopticon to get people's attention? Shambala108 ☎ 01:57, March 2, 2018 (UTC)
