I should be the one saying sorry; this is a very long discussion to be barging into. I was mistaken that this thread was in part about [[Template:Masters|the other big Master template]], and thus slightly more relevant to the The Master page. Nonetheless, I still think the fused nature of this wiki's Master coverage is a relevant point because it makes [[Template:Master stories]] the only available lists of appearances for many specific characters (such as The Master, The Master, The Master, Missy, or The Master). And therefore, well, this thread is important, lol. | I should be the one saying sorry; this is a very long discussion to be barging into.

If we are, I do, thinking of the stories template as equivalent to a "lists of appearances", I would argue that ''The Quantum Archangel'' belongs in the "prose" section of "Pratt" due to the Master temporarily reverting to that form for a sizable chunk of the novel, but that rather goes against how ''Dust Breeding'' is treated. ... | If we are, I do, thinking of the stories template as equivalent to a "lists of appearances", I would argue that ''The Quantum Archangel'' belongs in the "prose" section of "Pratt" due to the Master temporarily reverting to that form for a sizable chunk of the novel, but that rather goes against how ''Dust Breeding'' is treated. ... | ||

I should be the one saying sorry; this is a very long discussion to be barging into. I was mistaken that this thread was in part about the other big Master template, and thus slightly more relevant to the The Master page. Nonetheless, I still think the fused nature of this wiki's Master coverage is a relevant point because it makes Template:Master stories the only available lists of appearances for many specific characters (such as The Master, The Master, The Master, Missy, or The Master). And therefore, well, this thread is important, lol.
In terms of the story template, I believe the current formulation is fine. The matter's already been thoroughly examined, but--to use a new analogy--I believe that keeping/making "Pratt" a subsection of "Delgado" would be equivalent to using The Lying Old Witch in the Wardrobe to remove Destiny of the Daleks from a template listing all Romana stories, not an overall helpful distinction.
