I cited it and removed the deletion banner, 'cause I hear that was due to the lack of citation. --Golden Monkey 11:36, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
- I'm surprised that folks were so quick to toss the deletion banner up, considering the news was everywhere including the Doctor Who News Page and the BBC itself. 23skidoo 14:58, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
Source re: alien
This one's funny. It was actually a joke published by DWIN, but it seems to have been picked up as fact in some places. I'll add a source to straighten things out. Since this was posted by a major fan organization, plus I have seen some people taking the "Wolf Weed" thing as being fact, I think mentioning it and indicating that it's just a joke is important. I even nearly fell for it (I did not see this original posting, which is clearly a josh). 23skidoo 17:22, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
- I think "Hoax" is a bit strong, because hoaxes are intended to mislead the public. DWIN's joke, once you looked at it, was obvious as they used images of K9 from the 70s and a few other references. I'm going to change the heading to "Practical Joke". DWIN's error was in the timing; this would have been a perfect April Fool's joke. 23skidoo 02:54, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
Soothsayer Connection
They did this with alot when multiple characters are portrayed by one actor, Martha and the Cyberized woman being "cousins" and Gwen and her ancestor from the the 1800's. If Russel was still doing the shows I wouldn't put it passed him to have a throw away line like "You wouldn't happen to be greek?" wish Moffat could do something cooler than that though. - DontEatRawHagis
- Most likely, it may be subtly mentioned in the episode(s) that will feature the vampires, confirmed on the Doctor Who website trailer [1] and on a Doctor Who fan blog which has rumoured the title Vampires of Venice before the trailer aired.[2] Additionally, the rumoured title and the trailer both have a setting that has similar look to the episode, The Fires of Pompeii. | JamesWho
Rumours
Could we maybe get some protection on this page, to stop unregistered users leaving weird unconfirmed speculation like she will be Donna Noble's cousin. I also think she should be added to the Companions list on the main toolbar <<< . Similarly, shouldn't the Eleventh Doctor appear on The Doctor section on the toolbar <<< ? -- Will101 21:27, September 1, 2009 (UTC)
- The Eleventh Doctor and Amy Pond are being left off the dropdown lists until we have more information.

But why? They've been confirmed as the Eleventh Doctor and his Companion! -- Will101 21:49, September 1, 2009 (UTC)
- I second that. I'm not sure what "dropdown list" is being referred to here, but if anything has been removed, it should be put back. 23skidoo 12:02, October 28, 2009 (UTC)
It's the sidebar on the left <<< :) -- Will101 14:40, October 28, 2009 (UTC)
Policewoman outfit
I removed a reference to Amy arresting the Doctor. We don't know what the context of that outfit is, and unless she's in the vice squad, that short skirt is decidedly not regulation. It could just as easily be some form of costume. I did add a reference to the shorts/leggings because a pattern does seem to be emerging in all of the location photos that have been published so far, ranging from the first episode of the series (with the police outfit) to presumably later episodes (like the first one filmed in July). 23skidoo 12:02, October 28, 2009 (UTC)
- Once again, I removed the reference to her arresting the Doctor. Unless someone has managed to see the episode in question, we can't state this. If someone connected with the production - an actor, a writer - has indicated this, then it needs a source. We also once again don't know if this is a real uniform (although it does look more like the genuine article in the photo included in the Telegraph link I posted, though I still doubt whether her skirt is regulation unless she's Vice). 23skidoo 18:39, November 24, 2009 (UTC)
21st Century or 1995?
I keep hearing that the Eleventh Doctor will meet Amy in 1995, but her time perdiod is down as the 21st century on the wiki. The setting of the filming pictures themselves hint that it will be 1995. Post offices appear to be in common use, whereas nearly everything is done through machines in the 21st century; before the 2000s came along, a lot of things were done through post offices, not machines. The filming pictures all seem to show a 90s setting, lacking machines and having the use of a post office instead. There is very few post offices even around anymore in the 21st century. Though there are still some, so it may be a bit of a stetch to say post office = set in the 90s. Delton Menace 19:23, December 5, 2009 (UTC) - This would be a blessing honestly, if it does turn out to be true. I like the idea of having a character a few years removed from current times, good way to play 'surprise at the future' to even stuff we're used to. Also, grunge-era dress sense! Awesome.
