War Doctor, and The Night of the Doctor



 * ... that the War Doctor (acted by John Hurt, pictured), introduced in "The Night of the Doctor" will be a "dark doctor", who will "bring an ancient battle to its devastating conclusion"?
 * Comment: Not a self nom. Please can we hold this until the 23 November, the 50th anniversary of Doctor Who, it would be great for this to be a lead then. I am aware that there are tags on The Night of the Doctor, and that both articles need better referencing, but this is a great opportunity, and I will work to fix the issues

I doubt that there is any chance of changing the timings so that this can go up at 7:50, the (UK) time when it will be broadcasted to 76 countries simultaneously? Thanks, Mat  ty. 007 12:57, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Symbol question.svg Not sure if War Doctor is ready... all of the sources are from BBC, which is not independent here. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:12, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
 * That was why I asked, so that I could fix issues in time. I will try and find some independent sources. Thanks, Mat  ty  .  007  15:14, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
 * I have added a couple of sources in addition to the article, is it OK now? Thanks, Mat  ty  .  007  15:47, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg New enough, long enough, interesting hook. Both articles are well referenced with notability established. Hook fact is referenced. I don't see any close paraphrasing issues. Image is properly licensed and suitable for the main page. Date request is acceptable. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 22:28, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
 * It's only a minor thing, but could we change "acted by" to "played by"? It seems to read better. user, 10:35, 22 November 2013 (UTC)
 * To admin who moves this to prep: please can this go in Prep 3, which will go up at 23 November 17:50. This is slightly before the episode airs. Thanks, Mat  ty  .  007  19:14, 22 November 2013 (UTC)
