Talk:Twelfth Doctor

Does this mean the redirection will be put back upSinefirt ^{talk to me} 14:34, December 30, 2011 (UTC)

No. The article was supposition and any information contained was better covered elsewhere. --Tangerineduel / talk 14:43, December 30, 2011 (UTC)

But what about the redirection: Ya'know the thing where you type in "Twelfth Doctor" and it's redirected to The Doctor#The Doctor's incarnations.Sinefirt ^{talk to me} 10:57, December 31, 2011 (UTC)[1]

Suggested additions

Now that the casting of Capaldi as the Twelfth Doctor is fair game, the behind the scenes section should be added to explain how his initial appearance was successfully kept secret (and in fact mirrors the pre-introduction of Clara). If it's been revealed when he filmed it, that should be added too. Both bits of info can be put in without violating spoiler policy re: the Christmas special. 68.146.70.124^{talk to me} 04:15, November 24, 2013 (UTC)

Can we add his image from The Day of The Doctor? I got this screenshot which would work fine. (link removed per site policy) Thor214 ☎ 23:52, November 26, 2013 (UTC)

No, it wouldn't work. It violates several policies, and it's off-site, which we don't allow. Please read our image policies at Tardis:Image use policy, Tardis:Guide to images, Help:Image cheat card and Tardis:Images and perspective. Thanks! Shambala108 ☎ 01:23, November 27, 2013 (UTC)

I should have been clearer. I was asking for someone to do the formatting for me since I was unfamiliar with the image rules here, which seem to contradict themselves in minor ways throughout the site after taking a look at them now. Here is a 300px wide screenshot from the episode, but I am having trouble trying to change the file name, and am not sure if it matters. http://tardis.wikia.com/wiki/File:Vlcsnap-2013-11-26-18h43m44s136.jpg Are there any other requirements for this? I added the proper license (BBC owned screenshot license and all that jazz). My apologies if I am pestering you. I perused the links you posted, but some of it is admittedly confusing. It's been a while since I added an image here. - Thor214 ☎ 02:39, November 27, 2013 (UTC)

Is he 12?

Is he truly Twelve? The Time Lords noted that all 13 Doctors were there, and after noting 13, we saw Capaldi's Doctor. further, with the acceptance of Hurt's Doctor, that would seem to imply that Hurt is now 9. Is this going to affect the conventions? I think it may be too early to definitely title this as The Twelfth Doctor just yet, it may be addressed at Christmas. RobbieNewton ☎ 13:25, November 24, 2013 (UTC)

Addressing him as Thirteen is also a bit premature until we know more. You can visit Thread:145487 for information on how we're dealing with this for now. Shambala108 ☎ 15:41, November 24, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, thats an interesting way of dealing with it. RobbieNewton ☎ 16:15, November 24, 2013 (UTC)

Most fans aren't gonna just turn around call Tennant the 11th and Smith the 12th so it's better to just think of John Hurt as 'Doctor 8.5'. At least that's how i see it.Jedted ☎ 05:30, November 26, 2013 (UTC)

According to Moffat & Co., the team (and even the scripts) continue to call Smith the Eleventh Doctor, and Capaldi the Twelfth. Unless he outright calls himself the "thirteenth Doctor", it's best to leave Hurt as his credited title of "War Doctor", and the numbering stays intact. d ●●● 01:19, November 27, 2013 (UTC)
