Thank you, I did see it as I am on the automatic watch system. I was merely doing what I was told to do after I saw a tense revision on the sonic screwdriver page and it seemed to make less sense. The writer (suphur) told me he/she was following the manual of style and to check it out there. So I was merely raising the issue to see whether people agreed that a current object should be refered to in the current tense. I mean, you wouldn't go on wikipedia and find an article about mars bars saying 'mars bars were a confectionary treat made by the mars company' whilst they are still in production. I know Doctor who isn't set in one time zone, but any object on the Doctor's person or in his TARDIS is to him a currently existing object and he would refer to it in the present tense frequently. It just seems to make more sense is all. [[User:Pharap|Pharap]] 21:09, September 27, 2010 (UTC)
