Talk:Clara Oswin Oswald

Reordering of Clara page
I believe a reordering of the article is needed now after the reveals in "The Name of the Doctor". Since we have found out that the Clara currently with the Doctor is the original Clara who from all the other Clara's come from, as sort of copies throughout time, the article should begin with her birth and onwards. The other Claras should be either placed after or in a section known as alternate Claras. Does anyone agree with me on this? --BorgKnight ☎ 04:02, May 19, 2013 (UTC)
- Yes. Also, this now needs to be renamed. Her name is, according to her "just Clara Oswald". Oswin is a username she comes up with that then becomes the first name of one of her echoes. But it's an alias and an alternate name, not her proper name. Anoted ☎ 04:16, May 19, 2013 (UTC)
- Oswin is her middle name, it was never stated to not be the case, when you tell someone your name it is very common to leave the middle name out, meanwhile some people (like Dalek asylum Clara) use their middle name in place of their proper first name. - The Light6 ☎ 04:47, May 19, 2013 (UTC)
spliting page back up?
Now that we know who Clara is, can we split this page back up? The same way that we do Rory Williams and Rory Williams (Auton)? Anoted ☎ 04:21, May 19, 2013 (UTC)
- The difference though is that we have been shown so many alternate Claras, should we do a page for each or reference them in the same article. I would say it would be better to keep it all in one article. Maybe only split off the Victorian Clara and the Oswin Clara as there is a fair amount of information about them --BorgKnight ☎ 04:30, May 19, 2013 (UTC)
- Since it has to do with multiple Doctors and facets of Clara, I think ordering it in viewer chronological order makes the most sense. First Oswinn, then Victorian Clara, then Prime Clara, then all the different versions of Clara, with the article returning to Prima Clara after the Doctor finds her again. – The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.131.168.101 (talk).

- If we there were to be a split it should be something along the lines of "Clara Oswin Oswald" and "Clara Oswin Oswald (duplicates)" or some other disambiguity. That way the duplicate page can start with their creation when the "real" Clara jumped into the Doctor's timestream at Trenzlore and then detail the various incarnations of her caused by that, sure most of the page would end up dedicated to Dalek Clara and Victorian Clara but I don't think that is too large of an issue. Also, given that at least one duplicate lived on Gallifrey, should this page (or if the split occurs, only the duplicate page) have Clara listed as a time lord? - The Light6 ☎ 04:47, May 19, 2013 (UTC)
- First, I think this page should be renamed Clara Oswald, as "Oswin" is definitely not her middle name, it's only the first name and middle name of two separate copies. Secondly, the other "lives" are said to be just that: individual copies, not the original, who each start out as infants and lead their own individual lives. Mewiet ☎ 04:52, May 19, 2013 (UTC)
