[edit] The Five Doctors
I think the reason this was left out of the template was because it never occured to anyone (including me) that The Five Doctors could be classified as a "Cyberman" story; after all, they're not the "main" villain. Although of course, I agree, they have the biggest adversarial role in it aside from Borusa (and even the Master), thanks to (in the words of Terrance Dicks), "bloody Saward", who liked the Cybermen a lot and insisted on their bigger role. --khaosworks 01:14, July 30, 2005 (UTC)
- Would you rather remove it from the list again? I mean, certainly we wouldn't include every story in which the Cybermen made an appearance, or we'd be including 2005's "Dalek" in the list, but I'd wager their screen time in "The Five Doctors" is on a par with their screen time in "Silver Nemesis" (in which they shared villain status with Lady Peinforte and the Nazi group, just as they shared it with Borusa and the Master in "T5D"). But I could probably be convinced otherwise -- like the Doctor, I've occasionally been known to miss an obvious Ferris Wheel. ;-) --Jay (Histrion) 00:39, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
- Well, I don't entirely disagree with their inclusion in the template, just to point out that they weren't the "featured" villain, screen time notwithstanding. To include them means we might as well include The Five Doctors in the Master stories template. In fact, I'll do just that. --khaosworks 01:18, August 7, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Title
The title of Template:Dalek stories is singular, while this template is in plural. Any reason? --Jawr256 17:42, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
Because "Daleks stories" sounds stupid.
