Zygons ?

- There's no way this is a Zygon story. They were name-dropped by Kate, but that's it. --MASEM (t) 13:56, 23 September 2012 (UTC)
I thought they were name-dropped by the Doctor. Jac12358 (talk) 15:32, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
Orphaned references in The Power of Three (Doctor Who)
editI check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of The Power of Three (Doctor Who)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Comments
edit- There is one deadlink
- Do you mean dablink? And the tool says there is one, but I've searched and it's not on the page. It also says it does not exist when I used dabsolver. Glimmer721 talk 16:54, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
- Oops that's what I meant. And yeah, I can't find the link either. Must be an error. Ruby 2010/2013 00:10, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
- I would suggest adding in ratings info into the lead, and then splitting that and critical reception into another paragraph (looks better when paragraphs are roughly the same size)
- Done. How did I forget the ratings? Glimmer721 talk 16:54, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
- Good plot summary -- long but still as concise as possible
- "At one point, the Doctor, Amy, and Rory relax and eat fish fingers and custard, a reference throughout the Eleventh Doctor's tenure" -- do you mean since he first appeared?
- It's actually mentioned in "The Impossible Astronaut" and "The Doctor's Wife" too, but I changed it and added another ref
- "watched by 5.49 million live" -> watched by an audience of 5.49 million live
- Any BBC America ratings?
- No, they are only announced if it's a record-breaking premiere, unfortunately. The last entry in "TV by the Numbers" is "Asylum of the Daleks". Glimmer721 talk 16:54, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
- "... weaknesses of some [Davies'] adventures..." -- some of [Davies'] adventures?
- Oops. Fixed. Glimmer721 talk 16:54, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
- End direct quotations with citations
As always, not too many issues here. I'll place the article on hold for seven days. Nice work, Ruby 2010/2013 03:51, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review! I believe I've fixed everything. I also added the read-through date because I found the Fourth Dimension entry for the episode. Glimmer721 talk 16:54, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
- Looks good. Happy to pass this one. Why can't Christmas be tomorrow!? :/ Ruby 2010/2013 00:10, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
