Weird article, this. On a quick read it doesn't seem too bad, but then when you actually read carefully, the sentences just don't work. Very obtuse wording that doesn't convey the kind of meaning you'd think it should. Also, not really happy with what's bolded in the lead. This isn't just "The Doctor".

Cleanup[[edit source]]
Weird article, this. On a quick read it doesn't seem too bad, but then when you actually read carefully, the sentences just don't work. Very obtuse wording that doesn't convey the kind of meaning you'd think it should. Also, not really happy with what's bolded in the lead. This isn't just "The Doctor". It should be something like An alternate version of the Doctor or somesuch. CzechOut ☎ | ✍ 05:42, March 14, 2010 (UTC)

- It's a more accurate name. CyberFoundries900 ☎ 21:13, November 20, 2020 (UTC)
- I'll raise the exact same concern as I did way back in Talk: The Doctor (Sympathy for the Devil)#Third Doctor rename: is there in-universe evidence of these incarnations being the Third ones? It matters little that we know OOU intentions of them being third incarnations, unless the stories tells us that (or that their predecessors were the Second Doctors of their respective universes) the renames should not go foward.
