Starman
I was wondering if you could help me with something. I'm working on The Beast of Babylon right now and the main enemy is Starman (The Beast of Babylon). However, his species is also a Starman, so I created Starman (species) and that's when I realized that there was also a David Bowie song called Starman. I put a speedy rename request on that to change it to Starman (song) and since there's now three Starman pages, I know we'll also need a disambiguation page.
However, the Ninth Doctor also refers to another Starman that he encountered and trapped in the twenty-sixth dimension and by doing so inadvertently created the Starman (The Beast of Babylon). So how would I label a page for the Starman that's trapped in the twenty-sixth dimension, since they are both referenced in The Beast of Babylon, but only one can have that page name?

- All right, thank you!
- And if it helps, I already did a WhatLinksHere search and there was only one Starman link on the David Bowie page, which I already changed (because it was suggested to do so on the speedy rename instruction page, if there were fewer than ten links). The only other link that now exists is the one in my last set of comments when I was explaining the Starman page issue. Mewiet ☎ 18:59, November 9, 2013 (UTC)
- I was just thinking, the main enemy Starman is sometimes referred to as the Beast or the Great Beast by ancient Babylonians. He has no official name though and he's mainly referred to as the Starman, with the Beast and the Great Beast coming in as the next most used nicknames, respectively. (In the very latter part of the text.) I'm not sure how acceptable either of those would be though, since they aren't what he's primarily referred to as. But I guess it's something that could be considered since this is unique situation. But I can definitely work with your suggestion until something's decided. :) Mewiet ☎ 01:51, November 10, 2013 (UTC)
Request for the Doctor Who Page
Hey, I found this picture of a British Paper from 1963 talking about Doctor Who as an upcoming television series. The article was written 2 days before the premiere of An Unearthly Child
Fingers are crossed that they find more lost episodes... I'm re-watching the classic series (still on season 1) and it's a shame that Marco Polo was never recovered.. which is peculiar because out of all the missing episodes, it was broadcast in the largest number of foreign stations. If we find another episode.. I'm putting my bet on this episode. ...That is if you truly believe they didn't find it in Nigeria..

This Just In
Thought you might wanna look at this. This is information released to the public on the Doctor Who Archive yesterday, and according to the site this is a reliable source. I really wish they'd tell us what the damn source was once in a while.. but like you said we have to keep hope.
Full story here: [1]
Information has been provided to DWA which apparently provides a list of what episodes were recovered. This list was allegedly posted online in June of this year and comes from a very good source (not the original poster, if indeed there was one). Certain aspects of this article were amended following an objection from a concerned party, the alleged original poster. We of course apologise for any distress caused. The list remains the same. As ever this should all be taken as rumour at this stage, this time however we will be passing comment given the claims of the source. List of Missing Episodes Found The complete list D: Marco Polo found in both Hong Kong and Ethiopia H: The Reign of Terror‘s two missing episodes found in both Hong Kong and Ethiopia P: The Crusade‘s two missing episodes found in Ethiopia T: Galaxy 4‘s three missing episodes found in Ghana U: The Myth Makers found in it’s entirety in Ghana W: The Massacre found in its entirety in Ghana Y: The Celestial Toymaker‘s missing episodes found in Ghana AA: The Savages found in its entirety in Ghana CC: The Smugglers found in its entirety in Ghana DD: The Tenth Planet episode 4 found in Ghana EE: The Power of the Daleks found in its entirety in Ghana FF: The Highlanders found in its entirety in Hong Kong GG: The Underwater Menace‘s two missing episodes found in Hong Kong HH: The Moonbase‘s two missing episodes found in Hong Kong JJ: The Macra Terror found in its entirety in Hong Kong KK: The Faceless Ones‘ four missing episodes found in Hong Kong LL: The Evil of the Daleks found in its entirety in Hong Kong NN: The Abominable Snowmen status uncertain, all episodes possibly found in Nigeria or Hong Kong PP: The Enemy of the World found in Nigeria in its entirety QQ: The Web of Fear found in Nigeria in its entirety RR: Fury from the Deep found in its entirety Hong Kong SS: The Wheel in Space, found episodes 1, 4 and 5 in Nigeria and maybe episode 2 in Hong Kong VV: The Invasion‘s two missing episodes found in Hong Kong YY: The Space Pirates missing episodes found in Hong Kong 88 Episodes Found of 106 Missing or +5 Episodes Found of 106 Missing (including The Abominable Snowmen 1,3-6?) or +1 Episodes Found of 106 Missing (also including The Wheel in Space 2?)
