From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Plot
When is the plot added? I'd write it up myself, but I wouldn't be able to make a perfectly accurate writing during and/or after the episode since I've only seen it once. Just wondering.Masterpwn ☎ 02:47, October 19, 2014 (UTC)
- Basically, the plot is added when someone familiar with it has the time to sit down and write it out. Writing a plot can take a good deal of time.
- It's a mistake that newer users often make, thinking that there's a time limit for getting content on the wiki. There's no rush; we'd rather have accurate info, even though it takes time to create, than quick info that might be riddled with mistakes. Shambala108 ☎ 03:02, October 19, 2014 (UTC)
Pixar
As much as pixar aren't the only ones to reference A113, I think it's fair to say that they are the most well known for it. In addition, I think the significance of the reference is just as important, ie. going from 2 to 3 dimensions, in which case it's use in Doctor Who would be a reference to Pixar rather than the classroom.

- I think you are injecting a personal bias toward something you know, rather than provable facts. Pixar was not the first computer animated films, nor did they originate 3D animated films. --Buckimion ☎ 12:43, October 25, 2014 (UTC)
- Furthering Buckimion's point, Pixar was not the first with strides in the area of Animation. As you said Geek, "pixar aren't the only ones to reference A113", seeing this I do not think it would be appropriate to reference Pixar specifically, as there was no evidence of a 'hat's off' directly to them.

- However, no one is claiming that this is included because Pixar originated anything or that this a direct nod to Pixar. But Pixar is well known for being tied to A113, as is director Brad Bird in particular. This should be noted. Monkey with a Gun ☎ 01:32, October 29, 2014 (UTC)
