What is this wiki's views on Images? i ask because I think that the City of Death page has far too many for one article. My opinion is that there should be a limit. one main image for the story, plus one image per aired episode seems to be a good idea. Jack's the man - 14:45, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

I agree, one picture within the infobox and one image per episode is about the norm (somewhere I think in the manual of style it gives The Tenth Planet as an example, which still stands as a good example). The plot for the City of Death also needs to be thinned down / re-written so it's not such a bit ripoff of the DW reference guide, it's also a little too long for the page (even without the pictures). --Tangerineduel 17:05, 23 April

I'm not saying that pictures should go, I'm just saying there are too many on that article. The line has to be drawn somewhere. Jack's the man - 12:03, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

I agree some pages have toom many pictures (City of Death definetly). But what about the new series which is just one episode stories what is the image count policy for theese?--Skittles the hog 15:42, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

I don't think there's such a thing as "too many images", so long as it all fits the text. I abhor the use of the <gallery> function. Given the relative complexity of original series plots, one image per episode is simply not enough. One image per subplot, maybe. CzechOut ☎ | ✍ 07:56, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

I belive that the number of picture should be determined by the length of the article the bigger the article the more pictures should be used. Dark Lord Xander 07:59, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
