[edit] Plot summary
The plot summary added by Konczewski (talk • contribs) appears to be a cut-down and slightly rephrased version of the one at the Doctor Who Reference Guide [1]. This becomes obvious if you do a comparison and see that the same kind of phraseology and structure is used as in the DWRG summary. For example, at the end of episode five: "The Thals hear Elyon's scream and race to the lakeside, unaware of what new horror they will find." DWRG: "At the camp, all they hear is Elyon's terrified scream. Ian and Ganatus leap to their feet and race to the lakeside, unaware of what new horror they will find..."
I point it out here simply to ask if such a precis is enough not to make it a copyright violation. --khaosworks (talk • contribs) 01:41, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
- I think something should be done and have started a rewrite. --Litefoot 22:10, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
Have we actually reached a consensus on summary lengths to justify such a dramatic cutdown? --khaosworks (talk • contribs) 16:02, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
- I'm staggered by this abrupt pruning. What I'd written was hardly excessive - just a few short paras per episode. --Litefoot 16:35, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
