Attack of the Graske and Mission to the unknown

(my talk page) "Alright I'll stop adding the video games but at least keep Attack of the Graske and Mission to the Unknown VitasV 1/9/07 —Preceding unsigned comment added by VitasV (talk • contribs) 23:49, 31 August 2007 (UTC) "

I'm not asking to remove "Mission to the Unknown", I'm asking wheter the section that it is listed in should be changed on the (extremely) minor point that it doesn't contain the doctor.
As for Attack of the Graske, I asked on the talk page if there was a reason for it's removal, and was told that it was counted as a game (which I can understand as sit has two possible endings), so I kept it out. Ask (politelty) on the talk page, and see what people think.

Your user page

"*If you are looking for information on Doctor Who. I recommend that you don't use the Doctor Who story chronology page due to so many people doing unessesary edits and for some reason they wont include alot of Doctor Who stories due to bizzare and idiotic reasons."

I draw your attention to this page here

and if you tell us (ploitely) on the talk page what we are missing, then it may be added.

I also draw your attention to WP:CIVIL and WP:DR StuartDD ( t • c ) 18:49, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

I still stand by what I say unless you find a way to improve it and that is to add the stuff that is meant to be in there. VitasV 14/9/07

Once again, a demonsrtration of your belief that only you can have the correct opinion
Well let's take a look at what is not being included and why:

"The video games are missing, the comics are missing and a (f)ew others."(User Page)

video games

The fact is, that no official source inlcudes them as canon (with the exception of Attack of the Graske, see above section for that), let alone part of the same chronology. There is also the fact the "story" can be played in different ways

I followed a link to the Mines of Terror Game, where you would "regenerate" if you died.

Clearly, the number of "regenerations" that happen (if any) depends on the player's actions

There is also the obvious issue, that after "regenerating", it is the same Doctor - whcih clearly cannot be considered to be part of the same story as the main series.

So, no include

The comics

Well, I couldn't see a reason for NOT including them, so I started that section on The talk page. The definitie "no include" statements state that it is almost impossible to reconsile them with canon (I haven't read the comics, so I don't know). If that's correct, then I think it's a good reason not to include them.

If a "story" doesn't fit into the same basic story-line (such as the companions being different) of the series, then how can it be part of the same chronology?

There is also the fact (which has also been pointed out) that there is no attempt to bring them into canon by the Books or Audios

I am aware that they are included by official sources (As I stated on the talk page), but notice that the two definative "don't include" statements were added afterwards

So, no include

A (f)ew others

Examples?, When changing from the book/Audio format to the current one, I went through the lists on wiki to check that they were all included. I didn't include the ones yet tot be released (as I couldn't find a source for their placements), but other than that I think I got them all.

So give some examples and they may be included.

I still stand by what I say. VitasV 16/9/07

Well, I've explained the reasons given for not inlcuding the material. If, after that, you still hold your belief that only your opinion is correct, then I can't help you. StuartDD ( t • c ) 14:17, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Hi, there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Misplaced Pages pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot 23:39, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Frostfire

in regard to this:
Please stop placing Frostfire between The Time Meddler and The Empire of Glass. I'm not sure if you've listened to the audio but the story takes place between The Myth Makers and The Dalek's Master Plan. The story Vicki tells to Cinder is what happened during between The Time Meddler and The Empire of Glass, not what is happening there right now. If you don't agree with what I say then I suggest you listen to it again or buy it if you don't have it.

Do you mean that the placement between "The Time Meddler" and "The Empire of Glass" is a flashback? StuartDD _{contributions} 10:24, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply. I spotted the flashback for Fear of the Daleks when I was finding the references, but I must have missed the flashback here. StuartDD _{contributions} 08:08, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Davros

We are still waiting for a reliable source for this reappearance. When one is available, it can be added to the article. --Rodhullandemu 22:44, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

The Young Ones (video game)

I want to let you know that you need to find verifiable, third-party soucres establishing notability of the article. Otherwise, it's possible that this could be merged or possibly deleted. Hopefully, you can find some so none of that happens. Thank you, MuZemike (talk) 21:16, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of The Young Ones (video game)

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article The Young Ones (video game), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Misplaced Pages is not" and Misplaced Pages's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

TUGS edits

Please don't add information to the TUGS article, which i have already sourced as being incorrect. As shown in the image which i previously sent you a link to, the character's title is "O.J." not "O. J. " with the space as you have edited in. It makes the article look worse if you add stuff which isn't correct. Cheers -- ReplyOnMine! 12:54, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

YouTube

Just was watching your videos on YouTube just there, was wondering, how did you manage to get the title sequence without text?

As well as this, where did you get the japanese one? The article is lacking information on this, if you have any more sources on this, it would be great! -- ReplyOnMine! 00:12, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Ah, thanks for trying, i kind of figured it would be something like this. What i was wondering though was, how did you remove the titles from the videos? Is there a version of it which exists? -- ReplyOnMine! 22:27, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

RE: TUGS

Unfortunately its a bit more than just thoroughly improving the articles. The problems with Wikias is that they are volatile; as i'm sure you know, anyone can edit them. It would be like using Misplaced Pages as a source; one day it could be perfect and tell someone everything they want to know, and the next day the page could have been blanked.

This is why even if a wikia is perfect, which i am sure this one is with all the work everyone is putting into it, it still cannot be used as an external link. If the most notable information was actually added to the pages, as opposed to just linking the site, this would be more constructive editing.

Thanks for your help!

Your video

Hey Vitas, long time no speak! Just wondering, do you have a camera phone? If so, would you be interested in taking a picture of your "Munitions"/"Regatta" TUGS VHS? Because i would love to see it, possibly even upload it to Misplaced Pages. -- ReplyOnMine! 03:06, 6 January 2009 (UTC)

January 2009

Please refrain from making test edits in Misplaced Pages pages, such as those you made to List of Dragon Ball characters, even if your ultimate intention is to fix them. Such edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 05:35, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

February 2009

Please do not add content without citing reliable sources, as you did to Dragon Ball Z: Infinite World. Before making potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. If you are familiar with Misplaced Pages:Citing sources please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 03:07, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
