Untitled[edit]

I have put a link on the term Yetaxa, but it appears to have been a Doctor Who creation as far as I can see (as opposed to other historicals which used real figures, such as Marco Polo). Does anyone know any real historical basis to this or should i just remove the link? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Amxitsa (talk • contribs) 23:08, 17 June 2004 (UTC)[reply]

Delete the link as i think its a dr who creation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.122.32.152 (talk) 18:58, 22 October 2004 (UTC)[reply]

Trivia[edit]

Is it still necessary to have the date of the DVD release in this article, since there's an article covering ALL of the DVD releases across ALL regions? --JohnDBuell 03:44, 28 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:BarbaraInTheAztecs.jpg[edit]

Image:BarbaraInTheAztecs.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Orphaned references in The Aztecs (Doctor Who)[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of The Aztecs (Doctor Who)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Radio Times":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 02:43, 24 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Changing history[edit]

One of the important themes of this serial is that you can't change history, or, as it's been expressed recently, once you know what's going to happen you can't change it. Is this the first time this principle is expressly stated, and if so, can it be documented. I'd think that it would be valuable to add this, if only to show how the show has evolved, even so early in its run. JDZeff (talk) 06:59, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
