To sum up:a)there is NOTHING in Divided Loyalties that states "Magnus is the War Chief" b)the FASA GAme doesn't actually say what you claim it does b)Divided Loyalties is so riddled with continuity errors, that to cherry-pick one ''implied'' statement, while willfully ignoring everything else is totally point-of-view, and not in keeping with a supposed source of information d)there are countless narrative sources which make it overwhelmingly obvious that the Master is the War chief. Do any of them ever state "The Master is The War Chief" in those exact words? No. Do they all make it far more clear than your ONE muddled "Anti-source" in DL? Absolutely. However, I'm sure you're going to insult me about "walls of text", being "obstinate", say this is the wrong forum, and possibly add some line to The Master article about how Terror of the Autons '''explicitly''' says the Master knows the War Chief as a separate Time Lord, and how the Doctor and the Master haven't seen each other since they both left Gallifrey. My only concern is that some people may come to this wiki looking for genuine information about Doctor Who, and may believe some of the falsehoods that are all over this wiki.

::I'll let others be the judge of which of us has actually hurled insults in this thread.  What I care about is understanding you and helping you express your concerns in a way that other people can comment upon them productively.
::So far, I count at least five people in this thread who have no clear idea what you're talking about: me, [[user:Tangerineduel]], [[User:Shambala108]], [[User:Imamadmad]] and [[User:OttselSpy25]].  At least one other person, [[user:170.185.224.19]], seems to have divined your intent, but labelled it "pure speculation".  Only one person responding to this thread has seemingly understood you and refactored things in a form that you agreed with. 
::If six people either don't understand you or don't agree with you, '''you have failed to make your case.'''  By any objective measure, the consensus of this thread is that we don't know what the heck you're talking about.  It's not my failure, it's not Tangerineduel's failure: it's ''six'' people independently arriving at the conclusion that, as OS25 said, "None of us have ever had any idea what you were talking about".
::I'm gonna give you one more shot, and if you don't give us something we can work with, I'm locking the thread and throwing away the key, because what''ever'' it is you're trying to say, you have zero consensus to proceed.
::Please ''explicitly'' answer these questions, and keep your answers brief.
::#Are you trying to change some policy of this wiki?  If so, what is that policy?
::#Is the following statement an accurate and complete statement of what you're trying to accomplish: "Magnus, the War Chief, and the Master should be at three separate articles with behind-the-scenes notes indicating how they are connected by authors' intents."
