GA prep
editI took this from the GA review and will remove topics as they are adressed.
Casting
edit- More behind-the-scenes information about the casting and characters would be good, too. Here's a video about Dan, which is a good place to start.
Production
edit- It's also largely based around announcements instead of information: "[person] wrote/directed/starred in [episode]", instead of e.g. "[person] focused the story on the relationship between [X and Y]". There's a whole playlist of behind-the-scenes content that would be a goldmine for this stuff. The Doctor Who Magazine Yearbook also looks ripe with information.
- Writing
- I know Chibnall was notoriously quiet when it came to discussing his work, but this section could really benefit from some actual information about the writing process and decisions. Series 5 is probably the best example of this. Right now, the section basically just lists writers and would-be writers.
- Filming
- If possible, this section should be expanded, particularly with filming locations (and dates if possible, though I'm doubtful).
- I'd recommend looking for interviews with the directors for more information about filming. Good places to start: [1] [2] [3]
- Music
- There's an interview with Akinola in the aforementioned Yearbook which may be relevant. If not, this section should be merged with "Development".
Release
edit- Promotion
- "the social media accounts for Doctor Who went offline"—they did a lot more than that, according to the source.
- There's definitely more promotion to be mentioned here, even if it's just the behind-the-scenes content that was released.
- Home media
- Expand this section with some prose; don't just rely on the table alone. See series 5.
Reception
edit- This section is where the bulk of the problems lie; it's basically non-existent. Again, series 5 is a great example.
