Talk:Doctor Who Magazine/2013

Suggestion

Assuming DWM 464 isn't the only cover the wiki is going to deny itself posting, I suggest the image link to either the spoiler policy in question or even to the statement on the home page. 68.146.70.124^{talk to me} 13:47, September 4, 2013 (UTC)

Cover needs to be removed

462 violates the spoiler policy and has to go. 68.146.70.124^{talk to me} 13:57, September 4, 2013 (UTC)

Done. In the future, you can direct similar requests to my talk page. Shambala108 ☎ 14:21, September 4, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks. I don't think I'll need to do so. Presumably any covers relating to the Anniversary and Christmas specials and anything related to 2014 will also be similarly withheld automatically. I added a line under the gallery in order to provide a link to the spoiler policy. I still think it's being handled in a heavy handed and draconian manner by this website, but if you're going to do it, then it needs to be applied fairly and across the board and not just in direct reference to the announcement of 4 August 2013. I never bothered tracking this, because it wasn't an issue for me before, but I'm pretty certain most of the other covers under 2013 and earlier were posted in advance of their episodes airing (i.e. the Ice Warriors cover, the one about Name of the Doctor) and remember it's not just the images, but the smaller headlines need to be policed because we can't risk offending the 5 or 6 people who will care. Possible suggestion is a moratorium on DWM articles and cover uploads for 6 months after publication; possibly also for DWA though they tend to be more current in their covers and content. 68.146.70.124^{talk to me} 15:03, September 13, 2013 (UTC)

465

There's no reason for 465 not to be included. There's no spoilers on the cover which promotes the now-released Light at the End audio drama. 466 is naughty, though. 68.146.70.124^{talk to me} 18:03, November 17, 2013 (UTC)

Please add in 464

There is no reason to withhold the cover to 464 anymore, now that Capaldi has been officially unveiled. I just checked my copy and there's nothing on it specific to episodes that have not yet aired. 68.146.70.124^{talk to me} 04:17, November 24, 2013 (UTC)
