We need to cite a source regarding the claim in this article that Levine didn't co-write Attack of the Cybermen. This is the only place where I have seen it and at least one site (I believe Brief History of Time Travel) says the story was based upon an outline Levine filed at Saward's invitation called Return to Telos. So if there's doubt that he had anything to do with it, we need to say where this contrary information comes from.

Victor Kennedy
Is there a particular reason why the article doesn't mention the widespread belief that Victor Kennedy in Love & Monsters was based on Levine? It's mentioned in his Wikipedia article, with two citations. If it's good enough to meet Wikipedia's BLP standards, why not mention it here? —Josiah Rowe talk to me 16:49, April 24, 2012 (UTC)
- I'd say it's because it's based on an observation rather than any concrete proof from within the production.
- The Guardian article specifically says "rumours persist" about it, if there's any actual proof that rumours were circulating then maybe we can include that information that rumour circulated about Levine being the inspiration. But going by Wikipedia's sources it's just an interview observation and a Guardian article off handedly mentioning rumours. --Tangerineduel / talk 17:10, April 24, 2012 (UTC)
