Been away for awhile and for the most part like what's been happening with the wiki. However, I notice some of the stories, especially the Pertwee ones, have mini-bios for the characters stuck in the cast sections. Whose idea was this? The cast list should be just that, a cast list, as in who played who (whom? Who?). Putting "the Third Doctor does this" and "Liz Shaw does that" under each actor and the character(s) they played makes this section harder to read and would be better placed in the Story Notes or Continuity sections. Is whoever started this planning to do it for each uncredited part as well? These should be reverted back to the original format per the Manual of Style. Thanks. --Freethinker1of1 03:04, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
