This article needs a big cleanup.

The sections titled "Time Lord technology" and "APC net" need at least some info in them besides a "see this other page".

These problems might be so great that the article's factual accuracy has been compromised. Talk about it here or check the revision history or Manual of Style for more information.

Gallifreyan technology included time travel devices (such as the TARDIS), as well as other significant inventions.
