Ninth to First Doctors.
editI believe very strongly that the First to Nonth Doctors should be credited under the Doctor banner on the information box. They are credited under the "The Doctor" banner in the end credits alongside War, 10 and 11, so they should be here. 2A02:C7E:2E2F:DE00:817F:7F42:636D:531C (talk) 00:35, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
Preceding episodes
editI believe that the peeveding mini-episodes should be fully labelled and not be credited in a note. Jack M E 01 (talk) 20:43, 26 April 2023 (UTC)

- Those parameters are for broadcast episodes. They are listed correctly. -- Alex_21 TALK 21:37, 26 April 2023 (UTC)
Cast section relinks
editFor several years, the "Cast" section saw repeated character names not be linked to articles as they were done so earlier in the article. However, this seems to have been changed. In my opinion, this makes the article look untidy due to numerous "relinks". Another point to consider is that none of the succeeding sections (i.e. Production, Release, etc.) sees the characters relinked, creating unity with each other. But the "Cast" section does not follow this.
This is my argument for why the cast section should be reverted to its original form WITHOUT relinks as, to sum up my thoughts, it makes the article look cleaner and easier to read.
Thank you for reading this. MusicFan05 (talk) 06:48, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
- Per MOS:DL, duplicate links may be appropriate if contextually important, including in lists; since the point of the "Cast" section is to list the actors and characters, it seems especially appropriate here. See also the examples at MOS:TVCAST. – Rhain ☔ (he/him) 06:59, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
