Does anyone else think that the image should be changed to one of the Eleventh Doctor now that the Tenth Doctor has regenerated? And if so, what picture would be used? --[[User:Spamalot360|Spamalot360]] 12:02, May 8, 2010 (UTC) | Does anyone else think that the image should be changed to one of the Eleventh Doctor now that the Tenth Doctor has regenerated?

==Major shift in focus== | |||
I've today repurposed this template for bot-only use. This means that several instances where this template was directly added to a talk page by a human will now be broken. However, it's been on the order of a year since people have regularly had to add this template manually. When the welcome bot [[user:Wikia]] adds the page, it always substitutes it, meaning that changes in the template are not reflected on an individual talk page. Most of the people who have this template directly called on their user talk page will probably have archived or deleted it by now. | |||
So I think the damage done by breaking is far outweighed by the advantages of taking advantage of the bot-only functionality. Still, as the revision notes reflect a concern about previous changes which "broke" the template, I thought it only right to leave a note here. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}} <span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">20:03: Tue 20 Sep 2011 </span> | |||
