War Doctor, and The Night of the Doctor edit
( Back to T:TDYK )
( Article history links: )
- ... that the War Doctor (acted by John Hurt, pictured), introduced in "The Night of the Doctor" will be a "dark doctor", who will "bring an ancient battle to its devastating conclusion"?
- Comment: Not a self nom. Please can we hold this until the 23 November, the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who, it would be great for this to be a lead then. I am aware that there are tags on The Night of the Doctor, and that both articles need better referencing, but this is a great opportunity, and I will work to fix the issues

I doubt that there is any chance of changing the timings so that this can go up at 7:50, the (UK) time when it will be broadcasted to 76 countries simultaneously? Thanks, Matty.007 12:57, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
Not sure if War Doctor is ready... all of the sources are from BBC, which is not independent here. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:12, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
- That was why I asked, so that I could fix issues in time. I will try and find some independent sources. Thanks, Matty.007 15:14, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
- Crisco 1492: I have added a couple of sources in addition to the article, is it OK now? Thanks, Matty.007 15:47, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
New enough, long enough, interesting hook. Both articles are well referenced with notability established. Hook fact is referenced. I don't see any close paraphrasing issues. Image is properly licensed and suitable for the main page. Date request is acceptable. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 22:28, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

- It's only a minor thing, but could we change "acted by" to "played by"? It seems to read better. user, 10:35, 22 November 2013 (UTC)
