This is an idea I've had for a while which I think is particularly relevant now. Basically, I feel we could use a page which covers the divide between "Classic Who" and "New Who" and perhaps the "New New Who" as well. I see it as being like the page for canon in that it would collect references from official sources and authors. It could cover anything from the existence of separate classic and new series BBC websites, to Big Finish Productions' expansion to post-2005 content (as highlighted in Classic Doctors, New Monsters), their being listed as separate titles on platforms such as the new Whoniverse and even the "No classics? No 50th!!" gag from The Five(ish) Doctors Reboot. MrThermomanPreacher ☎ 00:56, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

I support this. I'd also like pages on RTD1 and RTD2, and just generally any other official "era" terminology. OS25🤙☎️ 01:50, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

I'm against this insofar as it applies to New Who until we resolve the issue of S14. That wrinkle is sort of an issue for the "New" terminology. Classic? Sure, there's no real debate on that except the TV movie. Najawin ☎ 02:14, 26 November 2023 (UTC)
