Until we know for sure, can the page at least be edited to display the little girl's species as [[Near-human]]? [[User:Witoki|Witoki]] 15:39, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

I've cleared up the Earth and near-human issues. If there are any more, please make them clear here. Thanks.----[[User:Skittles the hog|Skittles the hog]]--<small>[[User talk:Skittles the hog|Talk]]</small> 16:25, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

Perhaps a bit out there... but surely she should be Near-Time Lady? Like the Doctor has said, the Time Lords came first, and regeneration is nothing to do with Humans, but Time Lords. So wouldn't it actually be more accurate to say she is "Near Time Lady"? --[[User:The Thirteenth Doctor|The Thirteenth Doctor]] 16:08, May 4, 2011 (UTC)

[[near-human]] is just a term that refers to the many races that look identical to Humans, which the little girl clearly is. Gallifreyans are mentioned on the near-human page as probably being the first near-humans. It is possible that it would make more sense to use the term [[near-timelord]] or [[near-gallifreyan]] universally on this wiki, as Timelords did come first, but for now, the term that is used here is near-human.[[User:Icecreamdif|Icecreamdif]] 17:27, May 4, 2011 (UTC)

It is not a case of "what came first", but what is recognisable. Near-human is a term that can apply to races like the [[Morestran]]s or [[Tigellan]]s. It does indeed apply to this character.----[[User:Skittles the hog|Skittles the hog]]--<small>[[User talk:Skittles the hog|Talk]]</small> 17:31, May 4, 2011 (UTC)

Since this wiki is written from an in-universe perspective, it might make more sense to refer to Morestrans, Tegellans, and Humans, as near-timelord, since the Time Lords came first, and had a much greater impact on the universe than the Humans did. The Time Lords are pretty recognizable, since the Doctor has been in almost every episode.[[User:Icecreamdif|Icecreamdif]] 17:35, May 4, 2011 (UTC)

She is quite clearly near-human. Is a Time Lord not near-human? I would consider them so. Supposing you agree, it makes her near-human any way you look at it. I reinstated the near-human line as it screws with the formatting, but please do continue to discuss.----[[User:Skittles the hog|Skittles the hog]]--<small>[[User talk:Skittles the hog|Talk]]</small> 18:18, May 4, 2011 (UTC)

When I was talking about changing it to near-timelord, I was mainly thinking about the Doctor's comments in ''The Beast Below'' when he told Amy that she looked Time Lord, because they came first. Either way, the way the term is used now, the little girl is definetly a human or a near-human.[[User:Icecreamdif|Icecreamdif]] 20:20, May 4, 2011 (UTC)
