Target Selected monologue
I'm pretty sure that monologue was said by River Song, not Doom, even if it would be nice backstory to have. Cookieboy 2005 ☎ 16:19, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
- Which monologue are we on about? Danniesen ☎ 16:30, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
- The one where River talks about how she wasn't always a killer in Target Selected. Cookieboy 2005 ☎ 17:11, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
Categories
I'm thinking we should have Category:Locations visited by Doom which I'm more than happy to make. I'm just not sure if we want to be more specific (i.e Category:Planets visited by Doom etc). Thoughts? StevieGLiverpool ☎ 21:09, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
- Sorry, I don’t understand the question. Danniesen ☎ 21:16, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
- Sorry, just edited Stevie's post a bit, the links to categories were formatted in a way which gave this page those categories, and didn't display them. I added ":"s to the start, which should make them display properly. Cookieboy 2005 ☎ 21:19, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
- Ah good. Yeah, now it makes sense. Haha. Danniesen ☎ 21:29, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
- Omg that's embarrassing sorry. Question still stands though! StevieGLiverpool ☎ 21:52, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
- Follow up, Category:Doom's targets could be made as there are quite a few of them. StevieGLiverpool ☎ 20:24, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

- Think all of these make sense, though having experienced none of Doom's Day except that available free on the Doctor Who website I'm not exactly the best person to give input. With regards to planets vs location, would it perhaps make sense to have both, with the latter being placed in the former? Aquanafrahudy 📢 20:51, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
- I would say we can have both as for example when Doom visited Mars in The Martian Dilemma, the "planets" category would apply better and when she meets Ian and Barbara on a cruise ship in The Steel Cascade, the "locations" category is a better fit due to there being a lot of different places ON Earth, while Mars is not really inhabited by different continents and cities and such.

- Regarding the distinction I thought I'd ask because obviously the Doctor has all these pages with different "genres" (cities, countries, locations, planets, etc), and Doom has visited a lot of places but is it enough to warrant so many different types of categories or would it be better to stick to one? I supposed that'd be my question. StevieGLiverpool ☎ 20:04, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
- I think they're be reasonable categories to have. Cookieboy 2005 ☎ 22:07, 1 September 2023 (UTC)
