Seasons Greetings

[edit]
Peace is a state of balance and understanding in yourself and between others, where respect is gained by the acceptance of differences, tolerance persists, conflicts are resolved through dialog, peoples rights are respected and their voices are heard, and everyone is at their highest point of serenity without social tension. Happy Holidays to you and yours. Buster Seven Talk (UTC) 16:13, 19 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

WIkiProject Doctor Who: December 2025 Newsletter

[edit]
The Space-Time Telegraph
Volume III, Issue III — December 2025
Brought to you by the editors of WikiProject Doctor Who

Help! We've been robbed... of a new Doctor Who Christmas special this year :(
2025... I Let You Go
*vworp vworp, vworp vworp*
The Space-Time Telepgraph is back again with our final issue of the year. With 13-episodes of Who-related content broadcast in 2025, it marked the biggest year in the Whoniverse since 2017! Take a quick read below for all the Wikipedia-related (and non-Wikipedia-related) Doctor Who news that you missed, and everything you have to look forward to. Happy New Year! 🥳🎉

Would you like a jelly baby Good or Featured article?

It's been several months since the last newsletter, and a number of new GAs have been added to the quality content list. In total we have promoted nearly 50 Good Articles this year, on top of one Featured Article, making this the year with the largest amount of promoted Doctor Who-related content in Wikipedia history (Beating our previous record of 2012's 36 by a significant margin).
Congratulations to all of our editors who have contributed to quality content this year, and we hope to see the number of quality articles under our project grow as time goes on.

Intelligence Bulletin from the Subwave Network

  • A five-part miniseries and spin-off of Doctor Who, The War Between the Land and the Sea concluded airing this month on BBC One. The series will release on Disney+ next year. The conclusion of that series on Disney+ will officially mark the end of the co-production deal between the Beeb and the Mouse House that was first announced in 2022. While Doctor Who has been confirmed to continue with a 2026 Christmas Special written by Russell T Davies, its status in international markets has yet to be announced. CBeebies has also found an animation partner for a 52-part animated spin-off set to begin production next year and air across two series from 2027–2029.
  • The War Between will also receive a DVD and Blu-ray release on 27 February. A physical release of the soundtrack album for that series from Lorne Balfe will precede it on 30 January; however, it is already available on digital platforms. On 12 December, the long-awaited and long-requested tenth series soundtrack from Murray Gold was published.
  • Season 21 will receive a "Collection" release on 16 March, featuring a remastered episodes with new special features. Additionally a plethora of new audio and print stories are due for publication in early 2026.

Welcome to the 2026 WikiCup!

[edit]

Happy New Year and Happy New WikiCup! The 2026 competition has just begun and all article creators, expanders, improvers and reviewers are welcome to take part. Even if you are a novice editor, we hope the WikiCup will give you a chance to improve your editing skills as you go. If you have already signed up, your submissions page can be found here. If you have not yet signed up, you can add your name here, and a bot will set up your submissions page within one day, ready for you to take part. Any questions on the scoring, rules or anything else should be directed to one of the judges, or posted to the WikiCup talk page.

For the 2026 WikiCup, the highest-ranking contestants will receive tournament points at the end of each round, and final rankings are decided by the number of tournament points each contestant has. This is the same scoring system that we had last year. If you're busy and can't sign up in January, don't worry: Signups are open throughout the year. To make things fairer for latecomers, the lowest-scoring contestants are no longer eliminated at the end of each round.

The first round will end on 26 February. The judges for the WikiCup this year are: Cwmhiraeth (talk · contribs · email), Epicgenius (talk · contribs · email), Frostly (talk · contribs · email), Guerillero (talk · contribs · email) and Lee Vilenski (talk · contribs · email).

Good afternoon! These are the articles that I currently have up for FL consideration if you are so inclined:

Also, I have this article at FA. Now, you did a review the first time I submitted it (before I yanked it for lack of interest). You could simply copy/paste your first review if you wanted, clarifying that’d you’d reviewed it the first time.

I would really appreciate your help on any of these! 😃 Bgsu98 (Talk) 20:28, 1 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the review, apologies for not making it around to your last FAC/FLC's, but I do hope to make it to these sooner rather than later! TheDoctorWho (talk) 06:59, 4 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Torchwood Declassified

[edit]

Hi! I want to complete the merger on the talk page, but admittedly I am unsure where to find primary sources to source the Declassified episodes, especially since the BBC source doesn't cover all of the episode details (Like titles or post-Season 2 episodes). Would you know where I could find some sources that could incorporate this? Torchwood is admittedly something I'm less familiar with in regards to consistent sources. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 06:07, 4 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@Pokelego999: This BBC Two episode guide lists the episodes and titles for series 1 and 2. I have home media sets for the entire programme, so I can check Children of Earth and Miracle Day sometime this week to see if the titles are actually listed there or not TheDoctorWho (talk) 07:09, 4 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
@TheDoctorWho the BBC Two guide has different titles from what is in the Wikipedia article, which means that info is not verified by the source. Thus, that info is still uncited. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 01:30, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
@Pokelego999: Apologies, I only took a cursory glance at that source yesterday.
Taking a closer look just now, it does appear to me that the season 1 titles line up identically to that source, with the exclusion of "Welcome to Torchwood" (which was a pre-Torchwood special). If I'm still looking at it wrong and something still isn't matching there, you can trout me. My series 1 DVD matches the titles as well, and includes "Welcome to Torchwood". If the plan is to ultimately just copy those episode tables over as is, it may be worth changing that first episode from being numbered as "1" to "—".
For series 2, my DVD set just lists these as "Episode 01", "Episode 02", etc., again matching what is on the BBC source I linked yesterday. I can't find the titles on any official BBC source, and I didn't originally add those to the article (only converted them to the episode table). Metacritic and TV Guide however, do have matching titles. I believe either of these could be presumably used as a source, as I don't think their episode listings are UGC.
I haven't gotten a chance to dig out discs for CoE or MD yet, but the above linked Metacritic and TV Guide sources do contain entries for those as well (although for CoE, "Cracking" isn't part of the title in either source). I will say however, that I did grab the cases for those two series, and that CoE advertises Declassified as a bonus feature on the back cover, while the back cover of MD merely just says "Behind the scenes". I'll verify whether the MD set actually uses Declassified branding/title card for nothing other than the pure curiosity. If we source the tables from Metacritic or TV Guide that won't be an issue since they include MD as having two episodes; but if we strictly use the primary sources ({{Cite DVD}}), and there is no Declassified branding, then we'd need to consider removing those two. I do also want to note that Metacritic and TV Guide contain "Welcome to Torchwood", but both label it as "Episode 0". TheDoctorWho (talk) 04:36, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
@TheDoctorWho I'll try to dig into the episode titles, but at worst I think the above two can be used as a fallback? But I'm admittedly unfamiliar with their sources' reliability. For now let me know how the search for the above two other seasons go. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 06:06, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
