I agree with Tangerineduel.  I'm all for consistency, but it seems to me that the fandom's already decided: the Doctors are referred to as "the First/Second/Third/etc. Doctor", the Masters are referred to as "the Ainsley/Delgado/Simm/etc. Master", and the Romanas are referred to as "Romana I/II/etc."  Trying to change these conventions by fiat, after 45 years, is a bit of an uphill battle.

Should Romana's incarnations be called Romana I, Romana II and Romana III as they are called now, or First Romana, Second Romana, Third Romana.

I'm in favour of keeping it as it is (Romana I etc), as this is how she is described in various reference texts and DWM. --Tangerineduel 12:54, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

I think it should stay as it is - after all, we don't really know which regenerations they were.
