- I hope this page won't get deleted ! 69.50.70.9 (talk) 04:09, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
- Why would it be? It's a valid article with sufficient content. The only reason it was redirected was because it looked like this. Alex|The|Whovian? 04:11, 23 October 2016 (UTC)

Peter Capaldi 's part in show more then cameo
[edit]The part Peter has in the show is more then a cameo appearance. His part is close to 10 minutes if not longer (Appears at 35:12 and leaves at 44:45), and his name is in the credits. Tardis is also shown several times coming and leaving. --Ecto~enwiki (talk) 04:18, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
- Okay, good point, took out the word cameo and changed it to guest appearance. 69.50.70.9 (talk) 04:22, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
- Ecto~enwiki does that look better now? 69.50.70.9 (talk) 04:33, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
- Looks good, however I have not proofed the whole article, spending too much time re-watching the show LOL --Ecto~enwiki (talk) 04:40, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
- Yeah I gotta get back to that also LOL. Cheers mate, 69.50.70.9 (talk) 04:46, 23 October 2016 (UTC)

Can the next one be an article
[edit]Good job so far on the plot summary guys, especially AlexTheWhovian.
Quick question, can someone make the next one an article, also, "The Coach with the Dragon Tattoo" ?
Would that be ripe to be its own page?
69.50.70.9 (talk) 04:25, 25 October 2016 (UTC)
- I agree. Since this article is done and dusted (for the most part), a page for episode 2 seems necessary and should be created before the release of episode 3 - to avoid creating a backlog. Plus the episode was released 4 days ago now so it needs to exist sooner rather than later.86.177.102.193 (talk) 18:00, 25 October 2016 (UTC)
- Yeah definitely agree with that guy. Especially as the show seems to be getting more press. 69.50.70.9 (talk) 23:24, 25 October 2016 (UTC)
- Well, makes sense, as long as there's enough information to initially add to it. Alex|The|Whovian? 00:39, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
- Google News shows 10 pages of hits. 69.50.70.9 (talk) 01:15, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
- Unrelated. It needs a written-from-scratch plot, production and reception information to start from to become a valid article. If you want to create an article, then that's up to you. Alex|The|Whovian? 01:21, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
- Hopefully someone will do that, at least maybe before the next episode. 69.50.70.9 (talk) 05:10, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

Hey, this was really interesting to review and you have done good work on it, well done! I have done some edits for clarity and grammar etc and I see no major issues and earwig shows not copyright issues. Here are my comments for improvement:
Lead - The Lead is quite short - could you please expand it with some more information about the writing/production/reception?
Plot:
1.) "Tanya has to decline, so April asks Charlie (Greg Austin) to be her date" - I do not understand the link between Tanya not being able to decorate and hence April asks Charlie to be her date? Could you please explain/clarify?
- Im going to be honest, I haven't watched the episode in a while, I have no clue what that means, I'm pretty sure their unrelated so I cut the Charlie part.
2.) "Tanya decides to help out with the prom decorations, before she is chased away by another shadow, and returns home to her strict mother" - Could you clarify whether this means that Tanya does help out with the prom decorations after all or whether the shadow chasing her changed her mind? Done
3.) "The shot glances the alien" - What does this mean?
- Its meant to say graze
4.) The paragraphs are quite small - could you please merge some of them?
Production:
1.) "an episode treatment for Doctor Who" - What is an episode treatment?
- The first draft of a script, often they are submitted to try and pitch an idea.
2.) "the prior area of fiction writing expertise of Patrick Ness"- Could you please reword this? Done
3.) "Executive producer Brian Minchin said that he planned to not make the series as dark as prior Doctor Who spin-off show, Torchwood" - Could you please briefly explain why? v
4.) I removed the "Filming" subheading as it was quite short and some of the information was not 100% about filming so I thought it would be better without.
Release and reception:
1.) Is there any information on what times the episodes were released?
- Not for the original broadcast but I found one for the BBC One release.
2.) "After the initial 22 October broadcast, the show had planned airings next on BBC One in the United Kingdom and Australian Broadcasting Corporation — followed by a scheduled broadcast for BBC America in the United States during 2017" - I am quite confused by this - did this go ahead or not?
- Yeah
3.) "was a bit disorganised getting itself off the ground" - Can you please explain what this means? Done
4.) Can you please add the author to Source #8?
5.) This section has a lot of quotes, which is not bad, but if you could reword a few of them into your own words it would strengthen the section Done
Other - this article could do with another free image - I thought a picture of Ness in the production section would really suit well :) Done
Once these have been done I will do a Source spotcheck. Please let me know if you need any assistance or have any questions! :D DaniloDaysOfOurLives (talk) 00:42, 22 May 2025 (UTC)
- @DaniloDaysOfOurLives: done Olliefant (she/her) 19:09, 23 May 2025 (UTC)
- Hey, thank you so much for your changes :) I have spotchecked #1, #2 #3, #4, #5, #6, #8 and #11. I noticed quite a few things that were not in the sources and so I removed them. Other than that, I couldn't find any issues so I will pass this - well done! DaniloDaysOfOurLives (talk) 05:20, 24 May 2025 (UTC)
