I've voiced my opinion on your talk page. I can't really see how this could pass T:CAT NAME. First off, "sound alikes" isn't really a term. Secondly, as you just pointed out, it could be used both for articles like the Silver Doctor—meant to be a Doctor duplicate, sounds like him—and for those characters who are simply played by an actor who portrays the Doctor. If no connection is really made in the DWU source, who are we to go beyond that and speculate, based on something that's really quite common in productions like those, and not intended to have any meaning at all (using/reusing actors who've been in other, possibly major roles).

Another big issue with the proposed category is that it would undoubtedly overlap with category:Look alikes of the Doctor quite a bit.

Please take note that, while this discussion is ongoing, you cannot create or populate that category, as it would be violating T:POINT.
