Separate pages
I came across this page a few times, but never read anything on the subject: why isn't there separate pages for John and Gillian? Considering they are two different beings, shouldn't they have pages for their own? They appear on quite a few stories, so there should (I assume) be enough content for making them separate.

- There have been forum decisions in the past that ruled they should be on the same page. (Not that I'm necessarily agreeing with the decision; if we have two separate pages for the City of Death art lovers, who barely appear, why do two companions have to be combined?) The decisions are at Forum:John and Gillian and Forum:Split John and Gillian. This issue can only be reopened at the Panopticon if there is new information to be considered; otherwise, we stick with the forum decisions. Shambala108 ☎ 22:44, June 19, 2016 (UTC)
- For the sake of future reference, a lot of the decision took place on Talk:John (comic strips). I would be very interested in seeing these split into John Who and Gillian (The Klepton Parasites), though I acknowledge their are some solid reasons for their continued joint existence. – N8 ☎ 02:23, September 23, 2018 (UTC)
Referenced in the 2012 comics?
The thirteenth issue of the 2012 IDW Doctor Who comic has the Eleventh Doctor and Clara discuss Angie and Artie and their opinions on whether the Doctor and Clara are dating. To this, the Doctor replies, and I quote: "And that's why you shouldn't travel with children. I made that mistake with another pair a long time ago. Years of ‘are we there yet?’ and ‘whoops, I accidentally pushed the big red button’. This seems to me to be a reference to John and Gillian, and how their travels with the Doctor started. Is there anything else it could refer to, or is it good enough (despite the lack of names) to add to the page?--Scrooge MacDuck ☎ 19:35, September 22, 2018 (UTC)
- It's a given with DW that writers can and do write anything. Therefore, we do not allow speculation that unnamed characters must be ones that we are familiar with. Shambala108 ☎ 01:38, September 23, 2018 (UTC)
