Talk:Ulysses

truth

Is Ulysses really the doctor's father? --Ceryu 04:33, September 25, 2011 (UTC)

If you accept the novels as canonical, then almost certainly. (It's never completely confirmed, but the hints are very clear.) Of course, since Doctor Who doesn't really have a canon, everybody's free to pick and choose what bits of the mythos to accept and which bits to ignore. It's up to you, really. But that was the intention of the authors who featured him. —Josiah Rowe ^{talk to me} 02:51, April 26, 2012 (UTC)

Move

Shouldn't this article be named Ulysses? The policy is to use the most common name.I can't say with certainty which is more common as I have not read the novels, but nearly every mention of him in this article uses Ulysses. CloneMarshalCommanderCody ☎ 21:50, September 1, 2014 (UTC)

If you think it should be renamed, put a {{rename}} tag on the page. Not many people patrol the talk pages, and maybe a tag will attract someone who actually knows which one is the common name. Shambala108 ☎ 01:04, September 2, 2014 (UTC)

Appearance in Listen

The information about his appearance in Listen keeps getting removed. Apparently this is confirmed in Doctor Who Extra (I haven't seen it yet) but if you watch it will say. But I'm not 100% sure. Lewody1 ☎ 22:06, September 13, 2014 (UTC)

I'm the one who removed the info. First, nothing in Listen says the man in the barn is the Doctor's father, let alone a guy named Daniel Joyce. Second, even if DWE says its him, we can't include that because it is not a valid source for in-universe articles. P&P talk contribs 22:10, September 13, 2014 (UTC)
