Talk:Tales of the TARDIS

Dab?

Surely this page needs a dab to differentiate it from the multiple existing things under the same title? WaltK ☎ 18:39, 31 October 2023 (UTC)

No other subject exist under this title. Multiple subjects exist under the title Tales FROM the TARDIS. Similar title, but distinguishable from that one word being different. Danniesen ☎ 19:23, 31 October 2023 (UTC)

Well, it's not just a case of it currently being a subject with nothing to be disambiguated from, but future proofing too; I think it would be likely we could get Tales of the TARDIS (reference book) down the line...

Bi-generation

Since RTD's commentary on The Giggle revealed that the Tales of the TARDIS Doctors are the products of the Doctor's timeline splitting, shouldn't we create alternate pages for them as they're essentially from alternate universes? I feel like this franchise's timeline is confusing enough without feeling the need to condense information about characters from alternate timelines on one page. -- MattTheNerd42 ☎ 13:51, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

I don't think that's quite right; didn't RTD say it wsd his personal theory that previous Doctors have retroactively bi-generated? And even if he said that he actually, meaningfully intended for the past Doctors to have bi-generated, that doesn't necessarily mean that the TotT Doctors are the bi-generated Doctors.

Merger of TotT TV story pages

Merge tags have been put on Earthshock (TotT TV story), The Mind Robber (TotT TV story), Vengeance on Varos (TotT TV story), The Three Doctors (TotT TV story), The Time Meddler (TotT TV story). There is a small discussion of the merge on Talk: Earthshock (TotT TV story), but wanted to add something here as it covers multiple stories. The merge tag claims they're framing devices, rather than stories. However they have a larger existence than just being a framing device. If it was considered they needed consolidating and moving away from how they're named at the moment, a solution could be making them a subpage of this page. --Tangerineduel / talk 12:57, 18 January 2024 (UTC)

That'd be a nightmare for citations, though. Aquanafrahudy 📢 🖊️ 13:46, 18 January 2024 (UTC)

That is not how subpages should be used. We agreed through forums that subpage types should be applicable to many pages. Bongo50 ☎ 17:25, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
