| == Blue suit - Behind the Scenes? == | | == A day to come? == |
| | Do we really need this section here, given that this is NOT an actual incarnation of the Doctor? I think this is based on a misunderstanding of the [[Eleventh Doctor]]'s whole "vanity issues" statement in ''[[The Time of the Doctor (TV story)|The Time of the Doctor]]'', which actually places the "Twelfth Incarnation" as the Doctor who appears from [[Journey's End (TV story)|''Journey's End'']] to ''[[The End of Time (TV story)|The End of Time]]'', not this guy. Which, thinking about, shouldn't that also necessitate a splitting of our [[Tenth Doctor]] page?

| Why is this in the Behind the Scenes section?
| | :: There's little to no point splitting the Tenth Doctor's page, as he essenial regenerated back into himself. He even affirms as much in ''Journey's End'': ''"Used the regeneration energy to heal myself, but soon as I was done, I didn't need to change. I didn't want to. Why would I? Look at me. So, to stop the energy going all the way, I siphoned off the rest into a handy bio-matching receptacle, namely my hand. "'' & ''"I'm still me."'' Then, in ''The Time of the Doctor'', the Eleventh Doctor reiterates with; ''"Number Ten once regenerated and kept the same face."'' So, what would have been the tenth regeneration (at the time) was instead used in conjunction with [[the Tenth Doctor's hand]] to create the "Meta-Crisis Doctor", thus justifying the "A day to come" subsection covering mentions of future regenerations.

| :The Doctor occasionally wore his blue suit even after the Meta-Crisis Doctor left the TARDIS with it, revealing that the Doctor either replaced it or owned more than one. ([[TV]]: ''[[Music of the Spheres]], [[Dreamland (TV story)|Dreamland]], [[The Waters of Mars]]'') | |
| This is an in-universe statement. Unless there's something I'm missing here, this should be in a separate section. [[User:SmallerOnTheOutside|SmallerOnTheOutside]] [[User talk:SmallerOnTheOutside|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 02:56, January 22, 2013 (UTC)

| == Regeneration ==
| | ::: I agree with Nightmare of Eden, the page's current format makes no sense. [[User:OttselSpy25|OS25]][[User Talk:OttselSpy25|🤙☎️]] 00:17, 15 March 2023 (UTC) |
| so according to " The Mirror," Steven Moffat is counting the meta-crisis tenth doctor as a regeneration. This is kind of important since it puts to bed the long debate over whether or not Meta 10 used up a regeneration. Plus, since the War Doctor exists, that would bring us to 12 regenerations (8 classic + War + 9 + 10 + M10 + 11). Shouldn't it be added to the page somewhere?

| : Please see [[Thread:145998]] for how we're dealing with the different incarnation numbers, and please see [[Tardis:Valid sources]] for why anything Moffat says offscreen cannot be put on in-universe pages.

| |
| So, basically, until meta 10 is confirmed to have counted on screen, and the Doctor mentions he used up all his regenerations on screen, this kind of thing won't be added? I just want to make sure I understand this. [[User:Kremlin16|Kremlin16]] [[User talk:Kremlin16|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 21:19, December 2, 2013 (UTC)

| Should this page be sorted as Doctor, Meta-Crisis Tenth instead of its current name? It doesn't fit in with the rest of the Doctors. [[User:Guyus24|guyus24]] 05:37, January 17, 2016 (UTC)

| : Was wondering how could mention that there was a lesser version of a meta-crisis with The Doctor during his 1st incarnation when his energies were drained and transferred into the Human[oid] Jano, which permanently altered him (in The Savages). Just an oldster's odd observation.[[Special:Contributions/174.64.6.27|174.64.6.27]]<sup>[[User talk:174.64.6.27#top|talk to me]]</sup> 07:08, September 6, 2017 (UTC) | |
| | |
| :: Is there in-universe proof that [[Jano]] was a meta-crisis? Certainly, the term was not used in ''[[The Savages (TV story)|The Savages]]''. In addition, there are significant differences: Jano was an existing individual, he was not created as the result of meta-crisis. Also, depending on how close Jano's people were to humans, Jano was not supposed to survive being a meta-crisis. Note that [[Steven Taylor]] could successfully breed with the inhabitants of the planet, meaning that biology was reasonably similar.

| ==Tentoo==
| |
| | |
| I know much discussion has been had to reach the name for this incarnation that the wiki uses, but the social media accounts have now called him "Tentoo" – Is this an official acknowledgement and recognition for this name? | |
| (Before you protest "it's not in-universe" or to that effect, remember that the same is true of pretty much every variation on The Nth Doctor with only The Eleventh Doctor ever referring to themselves as such iirc.)
| |
| | |
| : First of all, it is not the case that Nth Doctor is not in-universe. [[Tardis:Doctors]] provides relevant references for this naming scheme from stories.
| |
| | |
| : Secondly, anonymous "social media accounts" and "official confirmation" are largely antithetical to each other. Notwithstanding, unspecified social media accounts are not a valid source and should be disregarded.
| |
| | |
| : Finally, even if the Doctor, in-universe, uses "time-wimey" to describe [[Blinovitch Limitation Effect]], we are not going to rename it thusly. This is an online encyclopedia of ''Doctor Who''. We are not going to use niche jargons instead of proper English. We are going to be very grown-up and use words like "equidistant" and "meta-crisis". However, if RTD and Ten(nant) himself both start rooting for an alternative name, I will be prepared to return to this question.

| == Conjecture ==
| |
| I have not yet been able to listen to ''[[The Siege of Big Ben (audio story)|The Siege of Big Ben]]'' (I'll get it sometime next week) but the Big Finish page refers to this character as the Meta-Crisis Doctor. Does this mean that the title is conjectural no more? --[[User:Borisashton|Borisashton]] [[User talk:Borisashton|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 12:33, June 30, 2018 (UTC)

| | |
| : First of all, a very astute observation. Unfortunately, he is not called that in the story though "meta-crisis" is used to explain his condition (several times). [[Jackie Tyler]] calls him "the Doctor" most of the time. Nevertheless, it is indeed the case that a holder and executor of a BBC license calls him "Meta-Crisis Doctor" off-universe. While the description of the {{tlx|conjecture}} requiring to use it for articles "whose subjects' names do not actually appear within a valid narrative" still applies, I think it is an important step. Were the name Meta-Crisis Doctor used in the credits, it would have been enough. For now, we just need to wait till the meta-crisis mass becomes critical.

| ::::: The term Meta-Crisis Doctor is the common factor throughout all mediums and to refer to him as Corin in relation to anything but the short story is incorrect. The base neutral "Meta-Crisis Doctor" should therefore be the term/name used when referring to the character in any common dialogue. If we start using one specific name for all characters across any medium then we may as well only call The Doctor, Theta.[[User:ibelieveinher|ibelieveinher]] [[User talk:ibelieveinher|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 00:50, October 25, 2019 (UTC)

| ::: First we should establish whether TtotT takes place before or after the Big Finish Short Trips.

| :::::: In Susan's intro alone, she as 2 separate names listed after "According to some sources". This is the format we should follow for the Meta-Crisis Doctor. He only goes by that name in one spin-off and the two appearances (big finish/target storybook) are unrelated. We know "Doctor Who" doesn't subscribe to continuity, so to try and ascribe continuity to it would be a disservice. He goes by The Doctor from day one in the Big Finish Short Trips but the Target Short Stories have him choosing a new name before leaving Norway. "The Meta-Crisis Doctor" is the only neutral and canonical term/name used across all media. - [[User:ibelieveinher|ibelieveinher]] [[User talk:ibelieveinher|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 01:51, October 25, 2019 (UTC)

| | |
| ::::::: But the Susan example is an example of conflicting sources. If TTotT takes place after the BF stuff I see no contradiction. There is precedent here with [[Jack Harkness]]. For the early life sections of his biography he is referred to as Javic and then later as Jack. His most used and most recent alias is the one used for most of the page. --[[User:Borisashton|Borisashton]] [[User talk:Borisashton|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 01:59, October 25, 2019 (UTC)

| :::::::: The Big Finish Audios and the Target Storybook 'are' conflicting sources. They even specifically diverge in regards to the topic of conversation.

| == Metacrisis/Tentoo ==
| |
| | |
| The Meta-crisis page is completely inaccurate and should not have been changed to meet the views of one writer's headcannon since she did not write the actual show. The head writer Russell T. Davies did not give the metacrisis Doctor a name. He is still THE DOCTOR (meta-crisis or Tentoo) and should remain as such until Russell Himself comes out and says otherwise. Also trying to change the name back to Tentoo is not vandalism.
| |
| | |
| Also on the author's Twitter page she specifically states that while she enjoyed the Big Finish she chose to go a different direction with her story therefore not staying with the previous storylines but rather her own personal ideas of what would have happened.{{Unsigned-anon|2605:6000:8C4D:5500:F803:535:2996:7724}}
