Mechanoid vs Mechonoid
There seems to be a growing convention of refering to 'Mechonoids from the planet Mechanus' in a range of publications of late (including the Doctor Who: The Ultimate Monster Guide to the Doctor Who DVD Files). Should the wiki rename this title page. I am trying to establish exactly when the name-change occurs in various guides but it would seem that;
- 1973 The Making of Doctor Who refers to Mechons
- 1976 The Making of Doctor Who refers to Mechanoids
- 1981 The Doctor Who Programme Guide refers to Mechanoids
- 1989 The Chase (novelisation) refers to Mechonoids
- 2003 Doctor Who: The Legend (and from then on) refers to Mechonoids

Someone needs to decide one way or another - the page uses a mix, which is no help to anyone. There should also be a redirect from the alternative (I always Google my Doctor Who words with the hope of getting a link here, and was confused not to find one for "mechAnoid") 87.244.72.208talk to me 18:51, March 20, 2013 (UTC)
