:Yeah, very confused over how this was handled. First it was [[The End of Time (TV story)]], then it was just The End of Time. Now it's back to The End of TIme (TV story). And without discussion, much less consensus. At least the person who moved it to The End of Time had a reasonable point: if there are only two things with the same name, then you don't create a disambiguation. That's the way it's been here forever. And, oddly, the weirdest things get preferenced by this seeming rule. [[Frontios]] and [[Midnight]] mean the planet, not the story. Those don't take you to a disambig page. So I really fail to see the consistency of having this double-entried name take you to a disambig page. Seriously, most people will think of TEOT as the TV episode. If they want the book, there's a lil link right at the top of the page. I don't see what's wrong with that page flow, especially if we're going to continue to enforce this odd "planets get preferenced over TV story titles" rule.

==Heavy edit to Discontinuity section==
The discontinuity, plot holes and errors section is getting out of hand so I hope no one minds but I have edited it to one make it easier to read by placing the points under each bit according to definitions - Discontinuity is something which goes against the norm for the characters/plot/objects/places etc we see as the viewer such as a personality change. A plot hole is when there is an inconsistency or gap in the logic of the plot and an error is a mistake.

i dont get it timelords can regenerate (change face) but the doctor said to wilf that when timelords regenerate a new man goes sauntering away but i dont get it that changes everything its like saying the doctor isnt the doctor he just has the same brain still with the woman he should have indicated who she really was we all know its the doctors mother and when the master vanished at least show if hes dead but i think that the master is alive but he probaly went with the time trap because with the lightning bolt it was still connected to rassilion so he could have still gone with him The master said when the doctor was aiming at rassilion kill him and gallifrey could be yours so that is so confusing.[[User:The mysterious|The mysterious]] 12:46, February 6, 2010 (UTC)

*I think that if the Doctor killed the Lord President he would have ''become'' the Lord President like a political coup. The Master said something like "he's the Lord President!" so I think that's the case, as to the thing with the Doctor dyin with his regeneration, the ''person'' he became "dies", when he regenerated into the Tenth Doctor he became a new man with a new personality and face which seems to happen with each new regeneration and with the Master, they may have purposfully left that ambiguos in order to bring him back later.--[[User:WarGrowlmon18|WarGrowlmon18]] 12:53, February 6, 2010 (UTC)
