Im more than happy to receive constructive criticism but why was the special feature about davisons re-appearance as the fifths docotor removed - please be decent enough to expalian whomever removed it —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.157.246.166 ( talk) 23:15, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
Nearly a B-- needs more citations.
The article may be improved by following the WikiProject Biography 11 easy steps to producing at least a B article. -- Yamara 07:26, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
Is Davison really best known in the UK for the Doctor? I am in the US, but I had the impression that Doctor Who was just one of several things he was probably known for. That is, it was an important role, but not necessarily his most important. Gwimpey 00:51, Jan 30, 2005 (UTC)
A recent edit says that in addition to Georgia Moffett, "Peter Davison has three children two children with his present wife, Elizabeth Morton." Which is it, three or two? — Josiah Rowe ( talk • contribs) 15:57, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
This article says he left after two series while Karl Howman says one. So which is it? Davhorn 21:55, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
I stole the image from elsewhere on wikipedia. I believe it's from " The King's Demons", but I don't want to attribute it as such until I'm positive, or at least someone else can take the blame. El Zoof 00:21, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
Right now the picture is from "Time Crash." I don't think it's fair to the Fifth Doctor to have to share his picture with another Doctor. Number Ten has his own page with two full body shots to be happy with. -- A concerned Wikian —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.255.201.226 ( talk) 00:41, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
WHICH RULER/MONARCH DO YOU MOST ADMIRE OR HAVE MOST IN COMMON WITH?
"I have a sneaking suspicion that in 50 years time we'll discover that Castro isn't half as bad as we think he is. He outlived his enemies, he's managed to take Cuba back from America's playground, and hold them off for all those years. We hear lots of terrible stories about him, but most end up being nonsense. I have also come to admire President Clinton. He was a pretty bright man." —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.19.19.212 ( talk) 14:56, 18 February 2007 (UTC).
I've removed reports on speculation based apparently on a first-person interview with Sylvester McCoy and a news report in The Sun. Let's wait for reliable sources. We're not a fan site or a gossip site. -- Tony Sidaway 11:18, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
In a recent interview, Peter Davison had this to say about Wikipedia:
So it looks like the editors of this page are doing a good job! Congratulations all round. — Josiah Rowe ( talk • contribs) 15:53, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
Is Mr Davidson's wife, Elizabeth Morton, the actress of the same name who played Lucinda Stoneway in Watching and Madeline Bassett in the 1990s TV adaptation of Jeeves & Wooster? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Paul590 ( talk • contribs) 11:52, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
There's no mention here of him starring in the movie Black Beauty. -- Victory93 ( talk) 23:46, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
Would it be ok if I upload a picture of him, his most recent from Law & Order: UK? Soapfan2013 ( talk) 16:36, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
I have all the Law & Order: UK episodes, all I have to do is take a picture of him on the show. I will be the one taking the pic from an episode, does that count as me owning the copyright? Soapfan2013 ( talk) 04:26, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
So you're saying I can't upload a pic of Peter Davison from L&O: UK is that it? Soapfan2013 ( talk) 06:40, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
I just want an updated pic of him, when I first saw him on Law & Order: UK, I almost didn't recognize him. That picture of him is like 20 years old or maybe even older. Soapfan2013 ( talk) 07:40, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
What's creative commons? And how do you search for the non free pictures? I'm sorry I'm all new to this. Soapfan2013 ( talk) 16:42, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
I can't find any recent images of Peter. :( Soapfan2013 ( talk) 18:23, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
There's a claim in the article that Matt Smith became the Doctor in 2010 at age 26. Unless I'm bad at math, the date of birth in Matt Smith's article (in October of 1982) suggests he should have been 28 or 29 in 2010. Does anyone know where the claim came from?

Why does Wikipedia use the phrase "Alma Mater"? I literally did not know what it meant and asked a teacher what it meant and she could not recall it. I think this is a phrase commonly used in the USA - but not in the rest of the world. I did a search on google and found out that it basically just means "university". So why don't you just use the word "university" or "drama school" or "college". Please - do we really need Latin? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Property ( talk • contribs) 13:28, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
