Thing is, neither approach is wholly satisfactory. It would be really useful to have a page about the story of the trial itself. That gets a bit lost when you instead focus on the individual sub-serials. | Thing is, neither approach is wholly satisfactory.

So I basically think we ''should'' have a separate page, as long as we're very clear that ''[[The Trial of a Time Lord]]'' is about the story, while [[season 23]] remained pretty much as it is — a behind-the-scenes explanation of the season. Thus it would be a story page without story notes, since those notes would likely already be on the [[season 23]] page. | So I basically think we ''should'' have a separate page, as long as we're very clear that ''[[The Trial of a Time Lord]]'' is about the story, while [[Season 23 (Doctor Who 1963)|season 23]] remained pretty much as it is — a behind-the-scenes explanation of the season.

I've always found this one vexing, too. It's like we make an exception for Trial because it's television or something.
Currenlty The Trial of a Time Lord redirects to Season 23 — which is the opposite of the WP:DW solution. There, they have wikipedia:Doctor Who (season 23) redirecting to wikipedia:The Trial of a Time Lord.
Thing is, neither approach is wholly satisfactory. It would be really useful to have a page about the story of the trial itself. That gets a bit lost when you instead focus on the individual sub-serials.
So I basically think we should have a separate page, as long as we're very clear that The Trial of a Time Lord is about the story, while season 23 remained pretty much as it is — a behind-the-scenes explanation of the season. Thus it would be a story page without story notes, since those notes would likely already be on the season 23 page.
