I'll take this one. I need more points for the wikicup and also it would benefit my WikiProject and a frequent collaborator. Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 09:48, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

General

[edit]
  • Earwig spots nothing suspicious
  • Images need alt text.  Done

Lead

[edit]
  • You should try to avoid citations in the lead, however in this case its alright given the context of is use.
  • It doenst seem like Destination Skaro was met with mixed reception just the change to Davros.  Done

Plot

[edit]

looks good

Production

[edit]
  • The source claims that the minisode takes place prior to Genisis of the Daleks. Not simultaneously  Done
  • Link the lines about Davies being executive producer and Vicky Delow and Scott Handcock regular producers.  Done
  • This one is up to you but the plunger bit received a little bit of coverage, see here [1][2][3]  Done
  • It states that Julian Bleach reprised his role as Davros, but given that there have been multiple davros actors, it may be worth listing which episodes he previously appeared in.  Done-ish, I mentioned the year rather this list all of the episode
  • It might be worth noting chronology in relation to Power of the Doctor as that was the most recent TV episode of at the time. It is noted in the plot summary but not by name so  Done

Broadcast and reception

[edit]
  • Break up the sections about release and reception into two separate paragraphs.  Done
  • Tell me about the reliabilty of nerdgazam.  Done
  • Doctor Who TV.uk isn't really the best fan site.  Done (replaced)
  • It doenst seem like Destination Skaro was met with mixed reception just the change to Davros. I would suggest slightly tweaking the wording.  Done

Response

[edit]

@OlifanofmrTennant: I know you're still working through it, but I fixed the first two issues. As for Nerdgazm, we have transparency in authorship and a clear editorial policy that explains its content policy which falls in line with WP:INDEPENDENT.

@OlifanofmrTennant: Hey there, it's been nearly two weeks. Just checking to see if this is something you're still working on? TheDoctorWho (talk) 05:18, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
oh yeah sorry, I was drafting up some notes before I lost access to my primary computer for a weekish because some incompetent fool spilled water over it. Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 05:43, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No worries, there's no rush. Just wanted to double check. Rumor has it that computers also need hydration sometimes. TheDoctorWho (talk) 06:06, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
