Talk:Lee Clayton's species

Headline text

I don't know who put up the delete tag, but I strongly disagree. We have a lot of pages on TARDIS wiki, yes, but I don't see how "opening the floodgates" is a bad thing. If anything, won't that make us more detailed and reliable? Never Forget The Day The 456 Arrived ☎ 19:07, April 26, 2020 (UTC)

I understand why there’s certain pages created like Eve's species because it’s made clear within the storyline that hers is a unique species and we’re given a lot of detail about them. Lee Clayton on the other hand, he could very well just be Gallifreyan (although that can’t be added until outright confirmed) and so a page about his species, with no information, is useless in my eyes.

I agree with deletion. Not only is it speculation to separate it without evidence, it sets a bad precedent. How many Time Lords or humans aren't explicitly labelled as such? Hundreds, probably thousands is the answer. It would be ridiculous to separate them all with no unique info to put on them. --Borisashton ☎ 20:13, April 26, 2020 (UTC)

Agree. If Fugitive of the Judoon gave details indicating Lee's species is something new or unique then it should be covered. But as is, all we know for sure is that he's not from Earth and outwardly resembles a human. But there's lots of species that fit that bill—Gallifreyan, Rhodian, Dulcian, etc. So to me, it's not really notable enough to warrant a page when all the information therein can easily be covered on Lee Clayton's own page and borders on speculation by giving readers the impression he's confirmed to belong to a unique species when we just don't know that yet.

Page deleted. This sort of thing is perfectly appropriate for distinct unnamed species, but Lee Clayton truly is an individual of unknown species, which may very well be human or Gallifreyan. So, for all the reasons outlined above.
