:::::::::That is exactly as it should work; discussion is fine, but adding to the article is meant to begin ''after'' airing. That's the whole point; future TV stories are not actually within [[Tardis:Spoiler policy|the stated scope of this wiki]], it's meant to focus on what ''has'' aired.

:::::::::::As discussed earlier in this forum thread, it was decided that populating the locked page with barebones info and an empty template would make it easiest for the page to be quickly brought up to our standards with the kn own info once it's unlocked.  When the page is opened up for normal use users can easily fill in the blank spots in the existing layout, rather than having to create the layout and populate it all at once.
