We really don't need to have five or six different timelines for characters in a story, when it is obvious what story happens next for them (for example Rose timeline on Doomsdays, states her next story is Turn Left. Do we need to say this when it is so obvious?) | We really don't need to have five or six different timelines for characters in a story, when it is obvious what story happens next for them (for example Rose timeline on Doomsdays, states her next story is Turn Left.

I propose we rethink the timeline section and what we include in them. I think th best way forward is to just simple include the 'main character' (i.e The Doctor, Sarah Jane, Torchwood). The only exception for this I think would ''Journey's End' | I propose we rethink the timeline section and what we include in them.

:I say get rid of the Timeline section entirely. Instead have a little box like the {{tl|discontinuity}} box that would sit in the Continuity or Notes section that says "If you'd like to see when different characters experienced this story check out the [[Forum:Timey-wimey detector]] for greater information on continuity and time placement". | :I say get rid of the Timeline section entirely.

:At least on that forum there is reasoning given for the placement of the stories, in the Timeline sections (some/few) have the reasoning for their placement but most are just added without any further information. Reading the Timeline article sections I'm often left wondering ''why'' they've been placed as they are and it's only by going to the Time-wimey detector do I actually get an answer. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] / '''[[User talk:Tangerineduel|talk]]''' 14:00, August 24, 2012 (UTC) | :At least on that forum there is reasoning given for the placement of the stories, in the Timeline sections (some/few) have the reasoning for their placement but most are just added without any further information.
