:::If an event has happened in either [[1602]], [[4567]] or [[2009]], we should create the relevent date page. Conbinding these events into a century page is a ridiculous idea? Do we merge all the minor characters from Series 5? No. Do we merge all pages that are a couple of sentences long? No. We have made a different page for everything. This should therefore mean we create a page for a date that has either 1, 2 or 100 odd events in it. The main century pages (i.e 12th century, 16th century, 21st century) should be kep with the dates listed and any key events that happened mention there. | :::If an event has happened in either [[1602]], [[4567]] or [[2009]], we should create the relevent date page.

But if we were to created a page for 1234 and had the formation about the fifth Doctor's adventure already there, it means we can easily add information recording a new adventure in that year instead of having it in two places. | ||
:::Thirdly, the | :::Thirdly, the length of the article should have nothing to do with regards to if it stays as a date or a century page. If we have one adventure in the year 1514, then we make a page for 1514 and fill in what that adventure was. Even if it's a sentence long, so length should have nothing to do with it, as decided in the Howling Halls talk page. | ||
:::So basically, create a page for the year no matter how many adventures take place during that year, and link the century page to it. If no adventure takes place during a year, create no page for it and don't create a link for it on the century page.[[User:Mini-mitch|Mini-mitch]]\[[User talk:Mini-mitch|talk]] 16:15, June 30, 2011 (UTC) | :::So basically, create a page for the year no matter how many adventures take place during that year, and link the century page to it.

A year doesn't need to have an adventure to have a page. As long as it's mentioned it should be created.----<u>[[User:Skittles the hog|Skittles the hog]]--<small>[[User talk:Skittles the hog|Talk]]</small></u> 16:57, June 30, 2011 (UTC) | A year doesn't need to have an adventure to have a page.

:I think that we should have individual year pages for any years mentioned or referenced and the century pages should just have general trends or events of an unknown date. It's a show about time-travel; I think it's important to have these sorts of pages. -<[[User:Azes13|Azes13]] 17:00, June 30, 2011 (UTC) | |||
