:All the pages that Tardis1963 left messages on were plot summaries that had been plagiarised from the Doctor Who Reference Guide. Not sure if a forum post was necessary to resolve this / was there anything to resolve? I have rolled back the affected articles in question. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] 16:50, April 7, 2010 (UTC)

::Well, his notes were vague. I thought he was implying that all extended plots somehow made story pages hard to read. He seemed to be arguing a point of general policy, not stating a case of specific vandalism.  I strongly advocate extended plot details, FWIW.

:Yeah, what I said on the talk pages was pretty vague. What I sorta meant was that with the plot summaries extended to the length they were, the end of the page was nearly impossible to find. It was just a mass of text everywhere, not to mention that when trying to read them it was pretty easy to get lost in the mass of text. I did think that they would have been copied from the Doctor Who Reference Guide, but wasn't sure and didn't want to accuse.
:IMO, they should just be relatively short plot ''summaries'', not extremelly long passages that could pass as a short novelisation. '''[http://doctor-who-collectors.wikia.com/wiki/User:Tardis1963 <span style="background:#0E234E; color:white">Tardis1963</span>]''' 20:44, April 7, 2010 (UTC)
