Forum:Meanwhile in the TARDIS: Differentiating the scenes
If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.
I have recently been expanding the Meanwhile in the TARDIS article, splitting it into two separate articles which cover the two separate DVD exclusive scenes. I felt it was important for these scenes to have their own articles, as the the same has been done for both the Series 6 prequels and the Night and the Doctor series of shorts. In some ways, the Meanwhile scenes are more important than these in the fact that they directly link between episodes.
I named the articles Meanwhile in the TARDIS 1 and Meanwhile in the TARDIS 2, but after discussion with CzechOut, realised that these are not official names. In fact, it is not known if the two scenes have any name which differentiates them at all. I used 1 and 2 as they were the most common Internet usage.
This discussion will cover two issues. The first issue must be resolved, regardless of the result of the second issue.
- What are the official names of these two short scenes? If there are no official names, how will we differentiate between these two scenes in prose and timelines on the wiki.
- Should these scenes have separate articles, or should they be merged back into the original article, albeit expanded significantly?
If possible, could someone look at both the DVD/Blu-ray menus featuring these scenes, and the booklet that came with certain versions of "The Complete Fifth Series" release. As well as providing detail on how the scenes were differentiated in the boxset, these may also give us extra detail on the writer/producer/director, and a synopsis which can be used on the articles. ǝsʞpɐןǝ (talk page) 09:37, 24/06/2012
