Talk:Past Doctor Adventures

message: Did the PDAs really start with The Eight Doctors?  Devil Goblins from Neptune was published the same month.  I generally consider The Eight Doctors to be the first EDA (although I can see how an argument could be made for it belonging in both ranges).  Just not sure whether it needs to be in this article, or if it complicates things (a newbie might think the article self-contradictory, since the text suggests 8Docs was the first, and the table says DGfN). —Josiah Rowe 21:27, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

message: The latest DWM says that Atom Bomb Blues is the last PDA on the schedule for the time being, and adds that "the future of the [past Doctor] book series [is] distinctly uncertain".  We should probably note this on the page — but does anyone know any more than that?  Are the PDAs being cancelled for low sales, or so that the BBC can focus its branding on new series novels?  (I suppose I could check the OG Forum, but if I do that's at least three hours of my day gone. :) ) —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 00:27, 30 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The PDAs "aren't cancelled" in the same sense that the television show wasn't cancelled in 1989. It's been over a year since the last PDA was announced. The BBC may one day decide to re-launch the PDAs, but not making a decision for over a year and not commissioning any new books for over a year seems like a cancellation to me.

message: I've started adding the cover blurbs of the books that I have got. I've done Verdigris, Millennium Shock and The Time Travellers, and will do  Divided Loyalties, The Hollow Men and World Game --Jawr256 17:21, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

message: ....That seems to be the most frequently seen number for me as I have been looking up the page number and other the details upon Amazon. This is not the actual case, is it? DrWho42 18:21, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

message: I'm wondering if including the covers (shrunk down, of course) to the 'List of Past Doctor Adventures' would be a good idea. Something akin to what lists of episodes generally do, i.e. List of Futurama episodes, although I'm s'posing that one might as well include a brief synopsis therein. DrWho42 03:51, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

message: What is the justification for including the 2012 releases on this page? Amazon lists the publisher of Shada to be Ace Hardcover, rather than BBC Books. The various series of books featuring past Doctors each have their own page (e.g. Virgin Missing Adventures, Past Doctor Adventures). Sounds like we need an official reference giving the name of this new series, and a corresponding page.NoJoy (talk) 02:12, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

message: I'd like to merge https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drift_(novel)?venotify=saved with this article. I don't think it meets book notability guidelines. Thoughts? Daveman115 (talk) 19:57, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I think that's a good idea. I'm the one who added the notability tag, but I didn't merge it at the time because I thought someone else might be able to find sources (which has happened for a couple of other DW books). Merging is the best solution imo. OliveYouBean (talk) 03:05, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
