Finally, rumors have it that the "without the final audio track" bit is there because Tom Baker is coming in to replace all of Paul Jones' work as the 4th Doctor, but the DVD will have the Paul Jones version as an alternate audio track. That hasn't been confirmed, but if it turns out to be true, how could we credit Paul Jones? Or does that depend on how he's credited on the DVD itself? --[[Special:Contributions/70.36.140.19|70.36.140.19]] 14:40, September 17, 2011 (UTC) | Finally, rumors have it that the "without the final audio track" bit is there because Tom Baker is coming in to replace all of Paul Jones' work as the 4th Doctor, but the DVD will have the Paul Jones version as an alternate audio track.

::You're getting the cart wayyyy ahead of the horse. Lots of "ifs" in your post. [[Tardis:Spoiler policy|Spoiler policy]] doesn't even allow the creation of an artilce about a story prior to its release. And release is a way off yet. | |||
::We also need to firmly establish whether the thing is even BBC licensed. This can only be absolutely confirmed by having the packaging in our hands. I've heard that whatever Ian Levine is up to is nothing to do with the BBC at all. We need to wait until release to settle any of these questions. So I'm kinda confused by the conflation of Levine's project and 2|entertain's ostensibly official DVD. In any case, time will reveal all. | |||
::As for the only televisual thing currently released as ''Shada'' by the BBC — the ''construction'' with Tom Baker linking narration — it is what thsi wiki calls [[Shada (TV story)]]. We'd really have to take some time and look at the final product of whatever these new efforts are to how it will impact our current [[dab|disambiguation]] of ''Shada''. Personally, I would think if it's declared a faithful completion of the 1979 shooting script, then it doesn't actually deserve its own page. [[Shada (TV story)]] would effectively be the sum of both the VHS and official DVD releases. | |||
::The reason there's currently [[Shada (audio)] is because it's obviously materially different, since it features another Doctor entirely, as well as significant scenes not present in the original scripts. The reason that there's [[Shada (webcast) is because it's a different medium, and I'm pretty sure that it's a different cut of the material from the webcast. I'm not certain, but I have a memory that it's not just "the soundtrack of the webcast". It just ''mostly'' is. | |||
::Point is, there would have to be something ''materially different'' about th4e DVD version for it to get its own page. By that, I don't just mean "additional scenes completed". There would have to be a known variance from the shooting scripts used in 1979. Otherwise, it is merely the televisual ''completion'' of the work intended for broadcast, and is thus [[Shada (TV story)]]. | |||
