::: Yeah, I too feel that Epsilon is jumping the gun here. The fact that the ''name'' is a reference to Terry Nation is obvious enough to be recorded in BTS (although phrased as simply "The name is reminiscent of…", not "The name is intentionally a reference to…"). But it definitely shouldn't be suggested that there exists any in-universe relationship between Terrynate and Terry Nation, the way it currently is on the page.

:::: As for Terrynate being a reference to Terry Nation, yeah, I think it's pretty clear that its intended to be an homage to Terry Nation. Don't need to be [[Hercule Poirot]] to figure ''that'' out. Granted, I should have phrased it on the page better. | |||
:::: And hold on a tickety-boo, I have seen numerous occasions where this practice of saying "notably, a guy called x y z did something" on a page where a character is obviously meant to be another character has been done all across the Wiki - don't come down on me ffs, when I was following what I believed was perfectly acceptable. <div style="background-color:#0E234E; border: solid 0.5px gold; display: inline; white-space: nowrap;">[[doctorwho:user:Epsilon the Eternal|<span style="background:#0E234E; color:white"><code>Epsilon</code></span>]][[doctorwho:user talk:Epsilon the Eternal|📯]] [[doctorwho:special:Contributions/Epsilon the Eternal|📂]]</div> 00:41, 10 July 2021 (UTC) | |||
