Talk:Meta-Crisis Doctor
Two versions in one timeline
From what I can gather on The Turning of the Tide, it is set vey soon after Journey's End, while the Big Finish audios do not specify a time length. I see no reason while Meta couldn't have decided to call himself "Corin" after moving to the south coast with Rose to work as a doctor and teacher while preparing for their child's birth. Then, by the time of the Big Finish shorts, he's moved back to London to work with UNIT, who still call him "the Doctor" because it was Rose's idea to not call him "the Doctor", but no one else had any reversions on his name. Like, "Corin" is who he is with Rose, and "the Doctor" is who he is with UNIT.
Is this speculative? Yes, but, to my knowledge, it does not contradict any in-universe information, and, frankly, if it ends this debate, then so be it.BananaClownMan ☎ 13:32, October 26, 2019 (UTC)
- Then I propose the following: If this is how the wiki is going to consider this timeline, if he is not using the alias Corin in the Big Finish short trips, Corin should not be used in that section and the alias Doctor should be used instead. If he is then using two aliases, then the entry should reflect that. I would also request that the first mention on the page not be Corin, but rather Meta-Crisis Tenth Doctor as it would be confusing to any users stumbling on the page as a new fan (I would have been, as I used this wiki religiously when I started watching the show), and it could be mentioned later in the opening that in the Target story he took up the name Corin and that would leave users far less confused.--Gingergallifreyan125 ☎ 14:30, October 26, 2019 (UTC)
