:::P.S the page itself  says "The Eaters of Light, described as light-eating locusts", but the image shows they're not being described as light-eating locusts but he thinks that's what they are. Why the re-name?

::::Hi SOTO. As you renamed the page, I would alert you to this discussion about the name. You Admins always say no action can be taken while a discussion is still going, yet you went ahead and changed it anyway. --[[User:Danniesen|DCLM]] [[User talk:Danniesen|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 22:18, June 21, 2017 (UTC)

Name

While referred to as Eaters of Light, the Doctor calls them light-eating locusts. I'm not sure if he coined the term like the Boneless or Dryads however. StevieGLiverpool 22:16, June 18, 2017 (UTC)

It seems to me that the Doctor is just specifying what kind of creature they are. Is "Eaters of Light" ever used, or is it only singular - to refer to the escaped beast? CoT ? 22:32, June 18, 2017 (UTC)
Eaters of light IS used by Kar, however it seems to me that it was only to refer to "some strange beast in the forest". "Light-eating locust" seems a far better name and an actual naming of said creature. --DCLM 06:11, June 19, 2017 (UTC)

Hi SOTO. As you renamed the page, I would alert you to this discussion about the name. You Admins always say no action can be taken while a discussion is still going, yet you went ahead and changed it anyway. --DCLM 22:18, June 21, 2017 (UTC)
