Since Series 5, we've had numerous 'mini-episodes' of Doctor Who which have been released in a number of formats. However, I've spotted a few things in the articles on these episodes which need looking at in my opinion.
For reference, here are the episodes which I am focusing on:
- Meanwhile in the TARDIS - two scenes that take place between episodes in Series 5. Released on DVD.
- Night and the Doctor - a series of five mini-episodes. Released on Series 6 DVD.
- Pond Life - a series of shorts released over a week. Full version was later televised.
Let's start at the top:
- In a previous discussion, we looked at whether TARDIS should be two or one articles. This discussion did not reach a conclusion.
- Is Pond Life a webcast or TV story? While it was released in parts on the website, it then televised in full on the red button.
- The infobox on Pond Life puts it between Good as Gold and Asylum of the Daleks, as if it were a televised episode. Obviously, if we consider it a TV episode in the previous point, then that's okay. But if we don't, should it keep said navigation?
- What are TARDIS and Night actually categorised as? They are not TV stories in the traditional sense, as they are DVD exclusive. This is important to know as they are currently linked with the DW prefix.
There are some other points, but in all my typing I kinda forgot them.I'll come back when I remember them.
To be honest, I think all these articles should be looked at by an admin, just to make sure they fit in correctly.

- You seem to be discussing two completely different ideas here. One is whether Meanwhile should be one or two articles, the other is how to categorize these various stories.
- As for the first one, in Forum:Meanwhile in the TARDIS: Differentiating the scenes, which has been archived, it was generally agreed that it should be one article, because on the DVD both parts have the same title. Shambala108 ☎ 14:49, September 4, 2012 (UTC)
