Would probably need to add sources Bigshowbower 05:43, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

There's sources for all this stuff on Muppet Wiki -- check out the Doctor Who page there. That's where this information was taken from. -- Danny<staff /> (talk) 06:57, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

Proposed deletion

Aside from this article's all out copying from the Muppet wiki it's context within the Doctor Who universe is questionable. There are two references according to this article one is a 'Tutter doll' that appears in a flashback in The Runaway Bride, it's a very minor reference (which is interesting on the Muppet wiki as it's their focus, but here it's not all that relevant), the second is a reference to the Cookie Monster from Winner Takes All if this needs to be mentioned it can be on the Winner Takes All article, it's also a reference to the Cookie Monster rather than to Muppets in general.

The 'Doctor Who contributors who have contributed with the Muppets', it's a list, I'm not sure really what information it gives to our site.

The trivia elements could (if sourced) be included on the individual actors' article pages. --Tangerineduel 13:45, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

I wouldn't nuke the entry, I'd just edit out the extraneous elements. and provide a link to the Muppet Wiki article, obviously. --Stardizzy2 14:22, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
The Doctor also mentions in "Tooth and Claw" that he loves The Muppet Movie. At the beginning of the episode, he tells Rose: "1979, hell of a year! China invades Vietnam...

I second deletion; I contemplated tagging it for deletion myself. The most of these things can go on story or character pages. (And I grew up with the Muppets. I love the Muppets.)
Lisa: "Dad, what's a Muppet?"
Homer: "Well, it's not quite a puppet, and it's not quite a mop, so to answer your question, I don't know."
