Thirteenth Doctor

 * ... that Jodie Whittaker, who has been announced as the Thirteenth Doctor, will be the third woman to play an incarnation of the Doctor, after Joanna Lumley and Arabella Weir?
 * ALT1:... that the Thirteenth Doctor, to be portrayed by Jodie Whittaker, will be the first female incarnation of the Doctor in the continuity of Doctor Who?
 * ALT2:... that Joanna Lumley also portrayed the Thirteenth Doctor, a female incarnation of the Doctor, in a 1999 spoof?

 * Comment: I'd definitely suggest the first alternate proposal, as the initial proposal doesn't take into account the non-"canonicity" of the other two actors. --  Alex TW


 * Symbol possible vote.svg Expanded by ~6.2x recently enough, long enough, is neutral, well cited, no copyvio evident. I agree with AlexTW above that ALT1 is the best hook. I've fixed formatting issues, and it's interesting, accurate, and neutral. However, a QPQ is necessary, and there's a pretty big backlog.

 * Symbol confirmed.svg My bad. I was trying to review a few nominations, and I overlooked that. --Hameltion (talk, contribs) 12:48, 27 August 2017 (UTC)
