TV companions might do some pretty explicit things in expanded media, for instance. This is why we have Tardis:ParentPage, as a general warning for the entire site.

Brief content warnings for stories might well be feasible, however. We are not a review site, but general warnings about serious triggers contained in various Big Finish Torchwood stories would certainly be an asset. The issue there is not "adult content": listeners ought to be warned about sexual abuse (as in Corpse Day) or domestic abuse when those issues are prevalent in the story.

If your suggestion involves warnings for not-particularly-gruesome death, tobacco use or mild sexual content, though, that would be far too big a project. The bar should be set higher than what you might find in a modern episode of BBC Wales Doctor Who -- or, perhaps it would be far more useful if we only issued warnings that could not be applied to the entire series. (Specifically, I mean stories which go above and beyond what Tardis:ParentPage says about the range--we can always expand our coverage there, and use section links in some capacity, if deemed necessary.) So if, say, Countrycide has warnings that couldn't be applied to most episodes of original Torchwood, we'd tag that page but not issue a general warning on each and every episode of the series.
