This article needs a big cleanup.

As this is a real world page, concepts of validity have little to no meaning. Thus, all invalid Doctors should be added.

These problems might be so great that the article's factual accuracy has been compromised. Talk about it here or check the revision history or Manual of Style for more information.

The following is a list of incarnations and manifestations of the Doctor. While the Doctor's species was contentious among accounts, with the possibility that the Doctor was human, (TV: The Evil of the Daleks, PROSE: Doctor Who and the Daleks, The Monsters from Earth) a Time Lord, (TV: The War Games, The Time Warrior, et al.) a hybrid, (TV: Doctor Who, et al.) or something else entirely, the Doctor was consistently shown to be capable of regeneration, even among conflicting reports of how that process worked. As such, the Doctor had numerous incarnations over their lifetime, but the exact order and number was as contradictory as the Doctor's species itself.
