I wanted to get this page up and ready by the time ''[[The Eleventh Hour]]'' was broadcast. It's not pretty (probably it should eventually go to a tabular format one of these days), but every story (and episode, if you wanna be picky about the [[BBC Wales]] era) now has an appropriate redlink just waiting for information to be dumped onto it from the mainspace article page. Though uglier, I decided to make the backslash visible in the links so as to visually confirm for people that they'd be creating an article at the right place.

Are "Production Errors" not the same thing as "Discontinuity, Plot Holes, Errors", 'cos I thought they were? I must admit I agree with removing the rebuttals. Every single plot hole was given a rebuttal, a lot of which were a little far-fetched...

:Well that's not what "Tangerineduel" said, 'cos according to him it's been simplified to Production Errors. Anyway, it's good that they've been removed...

I note on your user page that you seem to be on a campaign to change sectional headers from "Sentence case" to "Title Case". Please note that this violates [[Tardis:Manual of style#Headings]]. We have elected to use sentence case for headings (that is, only the first letter of the first word capitalized, unless further words are proper nouns or acronyms). This isn't, as you seem to suggest, a matter of "proper grammar", but a stylistic choice. Of course, this choice was not specified when the site was first started, so you will still see a number of instances of Title Case in headings. These will soon be reverted by bot, however, to comply with the MOS. It is the usual British standard to use sentence case for the titling of articles and sub-heads, and it's perfectly proper. Please do not continue reverting subheads to title case.
