::Strike that; I had [[Jack Harkness|Jack]] and [[The Master (Harold Saxon)|Harold Saxon]] open in tabs already, so those are the two I edited first; River can come later.

I made the changes as described above to both Jack and Saxon, with an edit summary pointing to this thread and the talk page, and a detailed explanation on the talk page, also pointing here. Mini-Mitch immediately reverted both of them, with no edit summary, and no comment. Aliyoda removed some of Jack's aliases again, but we've still got things like "Captain" and "The Man Who Can't Die", which are not aliases. | |||
Anyway, I don't want to just remove them again, because presumably Mini-Mitch isn't looking at the edit summaries, the talk pages, or the Panopticon (otherwise, I'm sure he would have commented instead of just silently reverting), and it would probably just lead to an edit war. | |||
So, now what? --[[Special:Contributions/173.228.85.35|173.228.85.35]] 05:28, September 8, 2011 (UTC) | |||
