Two reminders for the article and its talk page:

  • Any unsourced information on the main article page will be removed.
  • Absolutely no spoilers are allowed on this talk page.

Spoilers

Per the above rules, spoilery content was removed from this page. Shambala108 14:25, 22 October 2021 (UTC)

Let me rephrase; the points in the Rumours section (which I cannot describe here) do not belong there any more than Carole Ann Ford saying that she would "jump at the chance" to play Susan again would have belonged in the Rumours section of series 12. The "rumours" do not state that the people in question will be returning but that they would be willing to. Jack "BtR" Saxon 13:21, 5 November 2021 (UTC)

Anniversary

I notice a lot of reference is made to "the 60th anniversary special" even though there are rumours of <redacted per Tardis:Spoiler policy>, coinciding with the 60th. Should we remain referring to "the 60th anniversary special" (<redacted per Tardis:Spoiler policy>) until anything is confirmed otherwise? FractalDoctor 10:34, 12 June 2022 (UTC)

I have the same question. I've seen pictures of clapper boards, but nothing as of yet which can be used as a valid source. 66 Seconds 09:27, 17 June 2022 (UTC)

Start date?

Do we have a source for this <redacted per Tardis:Spoiler policy> start date? WaltK 19:05, 28 July 2022 (UTC)

Writers

Where exactly in the source given does it say that [Writer name, no spoilers] wrote all three episodes? What's the verbatim quote? The only quote even mentioning the 60th anniversary is "I’ve already written some of the episodes. The first will go out in November 2023 – that’s the 60th anniversary of the show." 120.20.172.45talk to me 08:17, 12 September 2022 (UTC)

Just a reminder for anyone replying to this question: no spoilers are allowed on this talk page. Shambala108 17:54, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
Correct, but somebody is going to have to answer this, lest you keep unsourced content in the article. 120.20.158.146talk to me 00:01, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
It will be answered without spoilers or not at all. Shambala108 02:06, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
That's fine. So if it's not answered, then the content remains unsourced and can be removed. 122.199.43.25talk to me 12:51, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
What kind of sense does it make to block spoilers on a talk page for an article that allows spoilers? If we can't talk about a page on its talk page, we'd might as well not have one at all! Where does T:SPOIL require anything like this? – n8 () 16:18, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
Not entirely sure, but disallowing spoilers on the talk page for a spoilery page is 1000% counterproductive, and regardless of whatever policy may or may not exist — and if it isn't a policy then it shouldn't be exclusively binding, as per T:LOCAL RULES — an exception must be made for this talk page under the very obvious circumstances. Otherwise, the only discussion that can be had is through edit summaries, which can lead to edit wars which creates a million more issues than saying that Scottish-Rwandan actor's name on this talk page. 16:28, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

Tardis:Where spoilers are allowed clearly states the policy, for whoever asked. Shambala108 21:33, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

Well yes, but the policies also state spoilers are allowed on series pages, which talk pages are the extension of, and the alternate leads to larger violations of policies. We've got conflicting policies, so we should choose the lesser of two evils, for sake of all our sanities! But this is all moot anyway 'cos of Howling:The Howling, even though it isn't perfect. 21:44, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

For my response on the original topic, which absolutely can’t be given an answer without using spoilers… go to Howling:Series 14 (Doctor Who). -Danniesen 22:08, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

@User:Danniesen I left your original post about the Howling (see below) so there was no need to add it again. And I restored this page sans spoilers to preserve the edit history, since this talk page will exist long past the end of the season's release. Shambala108 22:16, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

Spoilers

Any spoilers regarding the series, including the already existing ones, are to be discussed at Howling:Series 14 (Doctor Who). —-Danniesen 19:40, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
