I don't think there are any other alias pages like that one, and the Master's is actually surprisingly lacking in one-off joke names(though that could be that some of the more ridiculous ones are listed on the specific incarnation's pages). I'll go to the aiaees of the doctor page and do what you've suggested, and see what happens. The pproblem doeesn't seem to exist in the classic series for some reason, so it's really only the ninth, tenth and eleventh doctors where there's a problem.[[User:Icecreamdif|Icecreamdif]] 17:54, September 17, 2011 (UTC)

<p style="margin-left: 40px; ">It looked good to me (even down to the details of which specific borderline names you left in to avoid dispute, like "Mr Spock"). But again, Mini-mitch reverted it with no edit summary, no comment here, and no talk page discussion. --[[Special:Contributions/70.36.140.19|70.36.140.19]] 18:59, September 17, 2011 (UTC)</p>

Well, Rob T. Firefly seems to have gotten into a minro edit war over the issue with Mini-mitch, who seems to have decided that "discussion between 2-3 Users is hardly a discussion... lease leave it how it is," though you would think that he would join the discussion to rationalize his position. I'll leave a message on his talk page asking him to join the discussion and we'll see if he responds.[[User:Icecreamdif|Icecreamdif]] 22:12, September 17, 2011 (UTC)

I hadn't noticed that you and Rob T. Firefly already left him a message. Hopefully he won't ignore it this time.[[User:Icecreamdif|Icecreamdif]] 22:14, September 17, 2011 (UTC)

:I left Mini-mitch a message after he first reverted me, and he kept reverting me anyway. I'm really not in the mood for an edit war. I think this discussion and Icecreamdif's edit to the page were all fairly straightforward, and I agree with the consensus here, but I'm not about to get sucked into breaking what Wikipedia calls [[wikipedia:WP:3RR|the three-revert rule]]. Hopefully Mini-mitch will decide to make his concerns public here, or someone will find a more productive way to discuss the matter with him than unhelpful notes in the reversion edit summaries. &mdash; [[User:Rob T Firefly|Rob T Firefly]] - '''[[User talk:Rob T Firefly|&#916;]][[Special:Contributions/Rob T Firefly|&#8711;]]''' - 22:20, September 17, 2011 (UTC)

Well, I tried reverting him and I left a message asking him to come to this forum page in my edit summary, but he reverted it back without even bothering to leave an edit summary this time. I can't think of anything better to do about it right now, so I'll leave another message on his talk page, and for now let's just hope that he decides to discuss this eventually.[[User:Icecreamdif|Icecreamdif]] 23:01, September 17, 2011 (UTC)

:It's a bit sad if all anyone needs do to take ownership of an article, disregard [[Tardis:Editing policy]], and dismiss the work of others with whom you disagree is just ignore the community discussions and go turbo on the revert button. [[User:Mini-mitch|Mini-mitch]] is an admin, is this the standard to which admins are held on this wiki? &mdash; [[User:Rob T Firefly|Rob T Firefly]] - '''[[User talk:Rob T Firefly|&#916;]][[Special:Contributions/Rob T Firefly|&#8711;]]''' - 20:28, September 18, 2011 (UTC)

Well, I haven't read thorough all the policies, but is there any procedure for what were supposed to do if this happens. Should we report him to another admin or something.[[User:Icecreamdif|Icecreamdif]] 20:47, September 18, 2011 (UTC)

<p style="margin-left: 40px; ">Hold on a second. While I agree with you both 100% on the articles, and I don't think Mini-Mitch has been handling this the best possible way, it sounds like you're starting to take it personally, and that's not going to help anything. Before disparaging Mini-Mitch's motives or looking for procedures to go after him or whatever, I think it's worth just dropping Tangerineduel a friendly note and seeing if he can get Mini-Mitch to join the discussion, and ideally we can get this resolved in a way that makes everyone happy. --[[Special:Contributions/70.36.140.19|70.36.140.19]] 01:16, September 19, 2011 (UTC)</p>
