As per discussions and disagreements on this page and [[Forum:Last Great Time War]], I think it's worth saying that, until we can reach an agreement (if we can), I have changed the articles on the [[Battle of Canary Wharf]] and the [[Battle of the Game Station]] to reflect them as being in the ''aftermath'' of the LGTW, as that seems to me like a good compromise for now as it can be taken either way to both sides of the discussion. {{:User:Ghelæ/sig}} 14:55, 2 May 2007 (UTC) | |||

Is the battle of canary wharf the latest battle in the Time War. I don't think the events of evolution of the Daleks count. ---Si http://images.wikia.com/tardis/images/e/e4/Si_HTL_Seal_Leader.PNG 19:31, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

As per discussions and disagreements on this page and Forum:Last Great Time War, I think it's worth saying that, until we can reach an agreement (if we can), I have changed the articles on the Battle of Canary Wharf and the Battle of the Game Station to reflect them as being in the aftermath of the LGTW, as that seems to me like a good compromise for now as it can be taken either way to both sides of the discussion. ~ Ghelæ -talk-contribs 14:55, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
