Have a question about how the TVTropes wiki works? No one knows this community better than the people in it, so ask away! Ask the Tropers is the page you come to when you have a question burning in your brain and the support pages didn't help.

There is already a lock applied on the main Series page, the Characters - The Doctor page, and the YMMV page. Preemptive locks are already something we're not a fan of, so further locking will not be applied unless it's a proven need.

Fair enough. Sorry for the bother.
I only requested the preemptive locks because waiting for the official announcement would risk being stuck with a bad version of the page. I'm fully aware of what would have happened if I waited.
I had a dog-themed avatar before it was cool.
To say that the BaseBreakingCharacter.Doctor Who page hasn't seen any flames, but a fair and neutral write-up — and because the initial lock was to prevent mass editing, messes, and misinformation — would it be appropriate to unlock the pages now?
OH MY GOD; MY PARENTS ARE GARDENIIIIINNNNGGGGG!!!!!
Yeah, I think we're good. Unlocked the three pages.
With the internet wide freak out over the new Doctor casting and the flame wars already in effect on some sites, would it perhaps be an idea to apply a preemptive lock on the Doctor Who pages here until after the Christmas special airs at least? Possibly prevent a lot of fuss?
