Talk:Time Lord

Time Lords a race?

Are the Time Lords a race, cause some sources e.g. REF: Doctor Who: The Encyclopedia says that they are but various sources mentioning before the Time War e.g. DW: The Invasion of Time seem to suggest that they are more of a society? Which of it is it to be? Or is it not certain?

Also is under the Infobox Race category is a Female Time Lord called a Time Lady because humans are sometimes called Man and a male human is also called a man but women is not a species name so is Time Lady? --Skittles the hog 19:37, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Topics for separate articles

this could use splitting up, due to the volume of information.

• Time Lord history
  • Dark Times/time of Rassilon
  • the Doctor's time
  • Time War (already have this article)

• Time Lord government/politics
• Time Lord physiology
• Time Lord culture
• Time Lord appearances in various media

So much for the race the writers wanted to make so mysterious... anyway, I agree, but culture, government/politics and physiology could all be merged with Gallifreyan, which is currently lacking, although it is not always clear which parts of them apply to all Gallifreyans and which just to the elites. ~ Ghelæ -talk-contribs 18:46, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

Template

i've added a species template into the article, but i have left blank some parts that need filling in (as i dno't know the answeres) --Si 11:47, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Actually, Time Lords aren't the species - that's the Gallifreyans - instead, they're more of a rank like a king or a politician. ~ Ghelæ -talk-contribs 12:11, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
