Talk:Timeless Child

Incarnations of the Child

Given that there is (as yet) no definite point where we can say this being stops being "the Timeless Child" and starts being "The Doctor", I believe it makes sense to make pages for individual incarnations of the Child. Of course this page should remain for the general concept; but, for instance, for the child we've seen in flashbacks throughout the series, Timeless Child (Spyfall) might make sense.

Since we know nothing about them, would it not make more sense to group them together like The Doctor (The Brain of Morbius)? So like The Doctor (The Timeless Children).--TheOneTrueJack ☎ 21:45, March 1, 2020 (UTC)

I agree with OneTrueJack that we should group them. But I think we should keep the name as is: "the timeless child" is the name given to these incarnations during the episodes and is currently still how they are the most commonly known. (T:CHAR NAMES).RingoRoadagain ☎ 01:29, March 2, 2020 (UTC)

Merging

Shouldn't this just be put into the Doctor's page? The Doctor and the Timeless Child are the same person, after all. Never Forget The Day The 456 Arrived ☎ 15:02, March 2, 2020 (UTC)

That’s pretty confusing though, and would mean that we’d also have to merge the Morbius Doctors too. I think we should keep the Morbius Doctors and the Timeless Child incarnations in their separate pages (grouped between the two) and have them listed as alternative version of the Doctor in each Doctor’s infobox (similar to the Curator and Meta-Crisis).

Yeah — it’s useful to have a separate page for them in the same way that we have a separate page for The Other, despite the numerous sources that suggest the Doctor and the Other are the same person. – N8 (☎/👁️) 15:34, March 2, 2020 (UTC)

Infobox

Should the contents of this page's infobox be added to The Doctor? DarkerBit ☎ 12:47, March 3, 2020 (UTC)
