Talk:The Ultimate Foe

message: I just added a cite request for the statement that Colin Baker was invited back to be in "all four episodes of the first story of Season 24." In his Doctor Who: The Colin Baker Years VHS special, the actor acknowledged the suggestion that he return and do just the regeneration scene, but said nothing of being asked to star in an entire serial to set up the change, which occurred to me as I watched the tape to be a reasonable compromise. It does seem plausible that in the intervening years Baker had decided he'd made a mistake rejecting that offer and therefore didn't mention it in his special, but even Doctor Who Magazine's Special Edition #3: The Complete Sixth Doctor contains no indication that such an alternative was ever considered (I don't have a copy of The Complete Seventh...). Therefore, the cite request. Ted Watson (talk) 22:28, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

This is an example of meta-reference common to the 7th Doctor's era: such as in Remembrance Of The Daleks when Ace leaves a house in 1963 just as the series "Doctor Who" premieres on the television behind her. 67.42.218.60 (talk) 21:56, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

message: *For simplicity, any vote other than straight keep or delete I coded to X but not null.  This included anyone who changed their vote.  I did not include votes such as Cow.  The question of "buckets" for counting is linked to data acquisition.
*It's common to stratify populations to better understand dynamics and to more easily present results.  The current strata are by number of votes and voting consistancy.  As long as I avoid using anything even remotely pejorative (e.g. "cabal") and stick with descriptives (e.g. "60-90% Delete Voter") are these splits acceptable? 
*I'd like to use some text parsing to get a larger sample.  This would mean that some bad data would get through, but that's going to happen anyway.  I mention it now to avoid cies of "foul!" at some later stage.

Talk:Atom cluster

message: I removed some stuff which may be true for some clusters, but is definitely not true for all clusters.  The problem is that the article previously pretended that it is, in fact, true for all clusters in chemistry.  For instance, small carbon clusters are linear, non polycyclic structures.  Also, there are many types of clusters that are not necessarily composed of three-membered rings, such as the fullerenes and II-VI metal chalcogenide clusters.  Here is what I removed:
The shape of a cluster is based upon a trangular-faced polyhedron, also known as a deltahedron. Using a set of semi-empirical rules devised by K. Wade and extended by M. Mingos known either as Wade's Rules or Polyhedral skeletal electron pair theory it is possible to determine, often unambiguously, the shape of a cluster from its chemical formula.
Ed Sanville 22:09, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

message: For those that work in this area, dimetallic compounds or in fact any old linear chain is not a cluster.  At least for transition metal end of this, as defined some years ago by Cotton. So the verbage on Re2Cl8 etc is not about clusters.  In fact the Re2 species are building blocks to clusters quite analogous to acetylene being a building block to benzene.  As mentioned above, clusters contain at minimum triangles.  The boron and zintl worlds think the same way.  Also they have M---M bonding of some sort, so that basic iron acetate etc would not qualify.  So the article currently is pretty misleading. --Smokefoot 13:38, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

message: Didn't Ace & Doctor #7 also make an appearance after the cancellation of the show on the BBC Science Magazine show Tomorrow's World in a story made specifically to demonstrate a technique of 3D television by shading the vision of one eye and moving the camera clockwise around the focal point?
I'm not sure that would have been in character, or canon even if it was - that would have been to promote the 30th anniversary (ahem) special, Dimensions in Time. David (talk) 18:25, 26 October 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: ''Tomorrow's world''

message: I find this line misleading and very poorly sourced:
"Additionally, long before Jenny Flint or even Jack Harkness, Ace was written and performed as being receptive to interspecies lesbianism, but the heavy make-up in Survival obscured the intent."
A) It is only Munro's words we are using to justify this, and while she was the writer of the episode, it does not mean that the character (created by someone else who clearly intended her to be heterosexual) was in fact open to lesbianism.
B) Even Munro states that it was her OWN (i.e. Munro's) subtext added into the story because of her political and ideological views, and therefore I doubt very much whether it can really be attributed to the overall character of Ace.
I'm going to be bold and remove it. If someone wants to add it back in fine, we'll discuss it, but for now it is a poorly sourced statement that is very heavy on the OR, imo. Vyselink (talk) 02:02, 9 November 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I also removed "While the extent of their physical relations was not stated explicitly on-screen, Ace's interactions with Glitz in Dragonfire were clearly and overtly those of a disgruntled former paramour." as that is DEFINITELY OR and is not sourced at all.

message: Do we want to include the season listing in non-television appearances or not?  I suppose that since the Big Finish audio dramas are explicitly set in-between television stories, it could be OK, but the novels are a messier matter, and Head Games and Heritage are both set after Mel's travels with the Doctor are over anyway.  I think that if we start down this road it would be pretty easy to head into original research territory.  The placement of each story within the Doctor Who canon can be addressed at each novel or audio's page, anyway.
Also, if we're going to list comic stories and short stories, it would be good to include Doctor Who Magazine issue numbers and collection titles, respectively, so that readers are able to find the stories if they want to. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 23:22, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: First, I don't know anything about this franchise, so take this with a grain of salt. I only came across this page once in an unreferenced category, I think.FWIW, the focus on audio drama in the (now former) article—especially in the lead—seemed to do a bit of a disservice to the character.  She seems somewhat prominent given that several spin-off books have been published with her as the focus, making her what appears to be somewhat of her own sub-franchise.  Anyway, you'd have to be careful of WP:NOTINHERITED arguments, but I might argue that a consolidated location to cover multiple notable (or borderline single-sourced) works might have more value than separate articles (if people create them).  Food for thought on the possibilities on article improvement.  I came across a few reviews for book 1 from an English professor and at Sci-Fi Bulletin, which lists an editorial staff.
