Talk:White-Point Star

White Point or Whitepoint?

We've got 2 different spellings going on here. Which is the correct one? If it's "White Point" then this article will need to be moved accordingly. 23skidoo 21:27, January 6, 2010 (UTC)

Both of them are not correct. The actual correct is hyphenated between White and Point. For example White-Point. -- Michael Downey 20:32, January 12, 2010 (UTC)

Diamond?

The White-point star is stated to be a diamond , but the Doctor destroys it with a revolver that had been sitting in a box for several years (Which brings up the question of the bullet lag from improperly stored guns), so how can it be a diamond if it's so fragile?Macbook5 00:53, April 26, 2010 (UTC)Macbook5

• Maybe its just a really fragile diamond. But more likely it was just written to be so easily destroyed so the Doctor could shoot something and break the link without having to kill someone. In this case by destroying the diamond.--WarGrowlmon18 04:38, April 25, 2010 (UTC)
• Fair enough.Macbook5 00:53, April 26, 2010 (UTC)Macbook5
• Well, the star must have been strong enough as it did survive both going through earths atmosphere and also impact. And we can not be to sure if the diamond was destroyed but rather the apparatus it was storred in was destroyed. By any reasoning the diamond even with the correct technology is now useless as the connection to galifrey needed not only the white point star but also the master, and as the master is locked in the timewar now this is impossible.
• Diamonds are actually quite brittle. A bullet might well destroy it. Of course, if it were the real world, the diamond would have burned up in the atmosphere.
