Talk:The Fan Show

From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

Rename

I think it should be renamed "Doctor Who: The Fan Show", given that that's what it is actually called. --DCLM 20:27, October 24, 2016 (UTC)

At first, I also though that, but then I decided to add both possibilities because usually "Doctor Who" is kept out of page titles (like Legacy (video game), which is mostly referenced as "Doctor Who: Legacy" and Comic Creator, which is mostly referenced as "Doctor Who Comic Creator") OncomingStorm12th 20:31, October 24, 2016 (UTC)
What I wanna know is why they are not called their actual titles. Then we could just as well change "Doctor Who and the Silurians" to be called "And the Silurians". --DCLM 20:42, October 24, 2016 (UTC)
"Doctor Who and" is a very different situation to "Doctor Who:" I can't remember what the forum page was called right now, but it's long been decided that we truncate "Doctor Who:" from titles at Tardis.

It just seems a little weird. --DCLM 20:51, October 24, 2016 (UTC)
Forum:Doctor Who prefix in titles, continued in Thread:117218 in the new forums.

Giving these threads, the name should definitely be The Fan Show then. OncomingStorm12th 21:00, October 24, 2016 (UTC)
What about using the "retitle" function? --DCLM 21:12, October 24, 2016 (UTC)
I don't think you know what {{retitle}} is for. Also, please don't add a {{speedy rename}} while a rename discussion is still ongoing.

Just gonna say the "speedy rename" was not my doing. --DCLM 19:26, October 25, 2016 (UTC)
Yeah, that was me. Sorry OncomingStorm12th 19:32, October 25, 2016 (UTC)
Page has been renamed The Fan Show. Doctor Who: The Fan Show redirects here as well.

Coverage

I notice many episodes don't have pages. Is this because of people not bothering or because of an old forum debate? Personally, I believe that they should be fully covered, but I'm curious if there's been a decision against this. Cookieboy 2005 10:08, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

No decision, just a matter of the pages not having been created yet. Feel free to pick up the torch. Scrooge MacDuck 10:13, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
Would it be a good idea to add 'redlinks' for the episodes so that it's clearer that they're allowed to be covered, but just haven't yet? Cookieboy 2005 10:40, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
I would say so. ——Danniesen 10:48, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
