Talk:List of Doctor Who DVD special features
Is this page really needed, because if you go to the individual stories that have been released, there is already a list of special features. Bigshowbower 09:39, October 24, 2009 (UTC)
- It may be used in the future. The list of the special features may be useful if we ever get around to doing articles for all the special features on DVDs, then the descriptions could be copied over to those (future possible) articles. Also not all articles have a complete and detailed list of special features and what not. The article does, however need some formatting/re-editing for layout. --Tangerineduel 14:46, October 24, 2009 (UTC)
In reformatting the list the detail has been lost. If you wanted to everything where Verity Lambert appears that could have been done before but now this would be impossible. It looks nice though. Maybe the list could be further indented to keep the detail. I'm struggling to know how to that something along the lines of:
The Daleks - The Creation of The Daleks
A documentary which looks at the origins and creation of Doctor Who's most feared villains, the Daleks. From Terry Nation's script, through to the visual design of the creatures and their unique rasping voices, the concepts behind the Daleks are explored. With contributions from producer Verity Lambert, director Richard Martin, designer Raymond Cusick, sound designer Brian Hodgson, original Dalek voice David Graham, and original Dalek operator Michael Summerton.

I don't think we need that much detail here. This is a "gateway list" so people looking for a specific featurette can find out where it is, and then the detail can or should be included under the DVD release section for the story in question. It's not always easy to assume where a feature may be located. For example, the Romana's fashion's featurette which was plopped onto a random story, or the Kamelion featurette which could have been included on either King's Demons or Planet of Fire (and outside the UK these stories weren't issued in a single box). I am curious why there's no Seventh Doctor stories listed, though... 68.146.81.123 17:40, September 13, 2010 (UTC)
Special Features[[edit source]]
I created the Special Features page in the first place with all the detail on each feature. I had got as far as finishing the 6th Doctor features when it was taken over and turned into a gateway list. All the detail was removed. At that moment I didn't see any point in continuing to add to it. Why work on something only to see it trashed? I moved on.

Not updated?[[edit source]]
I think this article should be updated. Obviously not the in-depth coverage of earlier, but overviews of what features are on what DVD etc. Someone mentioned that people could go to the relevant Serials, but that is silly. As there are well over a hundred, it would make more sense to simply sturcture the article as it is, but updated to include the newer releases. You know it makes sense. 41.135.200.13 14:27, August 21, 2011 (UTC)
