Liz Shaw
I noticed Liz Shaw was recently removed from the characters list. She's unnamed but it's obviously her. There's references to her "old friends at Geneva", she mentions, "Doctor Smith" and Giles talks about how the place won't be the same without the Haggards around. I just wanted to know what the policy on unauthorized appearances like this were. – The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bio Planet WoO (talk • contribs) .

- Aah, I see. If that's the case, I think the policy here is the one which was recently re-summarised at Thread:279761#94. If stories with the license to both establish that "Patsy's wife" = "Liz", we can pipe-link to Liz Shaw, but in the characters list she should be listed as "Dr Haggard", not as "Liz Shaw".
