This page's presence was predicated on its existence being re-litigated after the Master-split. And, as I'm sure we're all aware, the Master-split has come and went. The primary arguments for coverage on Spy Master was that it (1) followed the Wiki's "continuity-of-consciousness" precedent for coverage and (2) all information that would be covered on an additional page would have to be covered on Spy Master as well. Both of these arguments remain true. The first point was stated ad infinitem on the previous discussion and I will not re-explain it unless that is something others wish of me. The second point has proven to be even more true than I expected, as all of the information covered on this page is covered better on Spy Master and Thirteenth Doctor. What benefit is there in having a second page that merely duplicates coverage that is on another page? NoNotTheMemes ☎ 21:06, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
- Agreed, as I was then. Najawin ☎ 21:18, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
- The script makes it super clear that “The Master-Doctor” is a distinct being from both the Doctor and the Master. Dhawan’s role changes in the script. Point is. If Chibnall considers them distinct enough from the Master and the Doctor then the wiki should. I’d say “The Master-Doctor” should get its own page with Chibnall’s script name. The fact is it’s a hybrid of the two. Which should be coveted separately. It’s easy to say “he just acts like the Master though”. True he does, but I’d argue that’s a shortcoming of the story rather than proof it wasn’t Chibnall’s intention for it to be a separate being. – The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.108.82.15 (talk • contribs) .
