Talk:Thal-Dalek War

Prop Delete

Rationale

Not really a prop delete this time, but we don't have the facility for a renaming, repurposing discussion. The actual, scripted name for this event is simply the "Dalek War" (Planet of the Daleks, part 1). And it doesn't include the events of Planet of the Daleks, as this article currently suggests. Rather, it describes only the events of The Daleks. (One of the Thals says to the Doctor: "Dalek War? That's impossible. It was many generations ago. You couldn't have been there." Then, as the Doctor explains how he could, he describes only the events of The Daleks as he sums up the war. So it's not really a long war at all. While I don't think the article should be deleted, it does need to be heavily redacted and moved. CzechOut | 06:58, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

  • Tybort (talk page) 19:58, January 19, 2012 (UTC). I've not seen Planet, but as-is it reads as two conflicts with a significant gap, rather than a single one that lasted a long time.
  • Agreed. OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 16:23, March 30, 2012 (UTC)
  • In addition, is there any reason not to state that the "Dalek War," or events of The Daleks, happened 500 years after the Thousand Year War, rather than "sometime after" as the article currenty states? Andbeonetraveler 20:18, June 17, 2013 (UTC)
