Talk:Retcon
I dispute the idea that says retcon is able to change memories rather than just erase them. The person who propsed this cites Something Borrowed as a source and nothing in that episode suggests the guests remember an alternate wedding. More likely they think they all drank enough to forget the ceremony and think the wedding happened because they knew they were going to a wedding that day. --User:Mjswrtings 1-May-09 17:52 UTC Yeah, exactly it was meant to make them think they got pissed and forgot the whole wedding, not replace their memories.I'm A Hydroponic Tomato!

Capitalization
This article is very inconsistent in its capitalization of the word. I'm a stickler for grammar, so I'd really like to know if, canonically, "Retcon" is supposed to be capitalized or not. 71.184.135.241talk to me 07:18, August 11, 2013 (UTC)
Rename to "retcon (drug)"
I'd like to voice my support of this proposed rename, for the reasons given in the template - that is, we also have a page for retroactive continuity, most commonly referred to as "retcon", and so this page name is confusing. Please voice your support as well. Cousin Ettolrahc ☎ 16:07, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
- As the editor who added said rename template, I too support the change. 16:16, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
- Do we need a page for the concept as it exists in the DWU, do you think? As in Collective of the Retconning Crocodiles? (as a side note, I support the proposal, for the reasons outlined in the rename template) Aquanafrahudy 📢 18:44, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
I agree with the rename proposal to "Retcon (drug)". — Fractal Doctor @ 20:51, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
- I agree with Najawin that, as far as the Doctor Who Universe is concerned, the drug would seem to be the primary topic. Jack "BtR" Saxon ☎ 20:54, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
