Final warning to all Users about Doctor Who TV

This is a one and only warning regarding Doctor Who TV.

It cannot be used as a source. The only Doctor Who related sites that can be used are Gallifrey Base (accessible via the news feed on the front page) and the official website.

All casting, filming, rumours must come from media (newspapers etc) and news sites (digital spy) - where everything has a base source. Doctor Who TV uses sources that are 'fans', with nothing to back them up. If they do have a source, please link via the source and not Doctor Who TV. MM/Want to talk? 22:19, August 5, 2012 (UTC)

Well someone keeps uploading it as a source and creating rumors. Whoever is doing this needs a ip ban... I'm starting to lose my calm... -114.76.1.117

Clara Oswin

Is the Mirror really a suitable source? Tabloids print wrong info all the time. The Sun's TV Magazine included the same name in an article, but in light of Asylum of the Daleks, in which Jenna-Louise plays somebody called Oswin Oswald, it seems that Clara Oswin was incorrect. Either they're different characters, or she's not called Clara at all.  Digifiend  Talk  PR/SS  KR  MH  Toku  JD  Garo  TH  CG  UM  Logos  CLG  DW  19:40,9/1/2012 

Grammatic tenses

Just wondered, since the series has now started airing, should the relevant parts of the article be converted to past tense, e.g. "Series 7 began airing on the 1st of September 2012" rather than "Series 7 will begin airing..."; "Toby Whithouse wrote episode 3" rather than "Whithouse will write..."? Or do we wait for the last episode to air before converting the article? I'd be happy to do the editing; just wanted to check before rushing in there. The Colclough 18:48, September 18, 2012 (UTC)

Arcs / Recurring Themes

So, given the season-arc nature of the series, and the prevalent themes that crop up over the course of a season, I wonder if perhaps the revived series' season pages should describe the relevant arc and/or theme(s) present in the series. The ones that come to mind I've listed below:

  • Series 1: "Bad Wolf"
  • Series 2: Torchwood
  • Series 3: Vote Harold Saxon
  • Series 4: DoctorDonna, Disappearing Bees, There's Something On Your Back
  • 2009 Specials: He Will Knock Four Times
  • Series 5: Cracks in Time
  • Series 6: Silence Will Fall, Death of the Doctor
  • Series 7: Christmas, Flickering Lights

Obviously, not all of these necessarily warrant mention, but some are deliberate, relevant season arcs (Bad Wolf, Vote Harold Saxon, DoctorDonna) that have more to do with the season as a whole than they do individual episodes.

As it is, almost all of the season pages are unique (read: inconsistent) and could use some reorganization, so I thought it might be good to bring up the possibility of a Themes section as we approach a three-month hiatus and can afford to do some spring cleaning.
