User:Pokelego999/sandbox/WikiProject Doctor Who Fictional Elements Priority Order

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Doctors, Torchwood/SJA characters, supporting characters who have not acted as Companions, or unrelated fictional elements are not included in this assessment for the time being. Companions and antagonists such as alien species or villains are.

Needs Heavy Work/Is in a state of being AfD'd

[edit]

Articles with dubious notability or articles where it covers a relatively obscure or short-lived subject in the context of the show that is liable to being AfD'd without further work.

Needs Heavy Work but is definitely or likely notable

[edit]

Articles that need very heavy work to meet current quality standards, either due to lengthy plot summary, small development/reception, or all of these, but are so important to the show and well known that they are very likely notable.

  • Susan Foreman (We should focus on this due to her recent/likely importance in the upcoming Doctor Who season)

- "Doctor Who, Family and National Identity: Entertainment & Sports Law Journal". (EBSCO)

Essentialism Is Dead! Long Live Essentialism: Doctor Who (Series 11) (EBSCO)

-"Political Satire and British-American Relations in Five Decades of Doctor Who" (SWOSU)

"4th Wave Feminism Submission “Bloke Utopia:” Bill Potts, Queer Identity, and Cyborg Narratives in Doctor Who"[21]

"Essentialism Is Dead! Long Live Essentialism: Doctor Who (Series 11)" (EBSCO)

Seems Notable but more work is needed to bring it to standards

[edit]

For articles that already have some of the bones laid in them (Reception and Developmental Information) but are very small and do not cover as much as they should, whether it be due to a small Reception or a lack of Developmental info, or both. These articles range from needing decently small adjustment to needing larger rewrites.

- JSTOR: From Balaclavas to Jumpsuits: The Multiple Histories and Identities of "Doctor Who's" Cybermen (Use the Library to access)

-JSTOR: Why the Cybermen Stomp: Sound in the New "Doctor Who"

-"CREATING SUSTAINABLE CYBERMEN" (EBSCO, Dev)

-"Fifty Years of Science Fiction Television: Themes of Governance and Bureaucracy in "Star Trek" and "Doctor Who"" (JSTOR, brief bits)

Minor Problems

[edit]

Articles with mostly good groundwork (Good Reception/Development, for example) that need some edits for one reason or another, whether it be due to a long plot summary, more Reception being needed, or just some general quality updates.

Likely Safe and Needs Little Work

[edit]

Articles that are well documented and well written in multiple aspects, and need very little, if anything at all to meet quality standards.

Nominees

[edit]

Doctors

[edit]

This is not a high priority for the project. However, this section is in the case of additional sourcing being found that would benefit these articles, allowing it to be stored for later use:

"Fifty Years in the TARDIS: The Historical Moments of Doctor Who: Critical Studies in Television" (Covers the basics of the Eras preceding the 50th)

"When Doctor Who Enters Its Own Timeline: The Database Aesthetics and Hyperdiegesis of Multi-Doctor Stories" (Multi-Doctor analysis)

"Doctor Who: Televized Science Fiction as Contemporary Melodrama." (EBSCO)

"Essentialism Is Dead! Long Live Essentialism: Doctor Who (Series 11)" (EBSCO)

-""It's about time": Twitter responses to gender change with Doctor Who's 13th Doctor: Popular Communication". (EBSCO)

-"A quintessentially British alien: New Statesman" (EBSCO)

- "New Dimensions: REPRESENTATION AND ALLEGORY IN DOCTOR WHO: Screen Education" (EBSCO)

-"Essentialism Is Dead! Long Live Essentialism: Doctor Who (Series 11)"

Ninth Doctor and Fourteenth Doctor are already GA, and thus are of little concern. Doctors Ten-Thirteen have decent sourcing already, though will still need improvement.

Sources for potential later use

[edit]

Sources that are in-depth analysis on a particular focus that may not warrant an article. These should be considered either if a future article should happen or whether they should be included in a list at a later date.

Reinette: [25]

Compassion: [20]

Pig Slave:

-"Those Pig-Men Things" (EBSCO)

Nearly every female character is covered here for a paragraph or two. Good overall source: [20]
