Links to episode pages

Here's an easy list of the links to the episode articles for when they're developed (not redirecting):

For Tonight We Might Die (done as of this post)
The Coach with the Dragon Tattoo
Nightvisiting
Co-Owner of a Lonely Heart
Brave-ish Heart
Detained (Class)
The Metaphysical Engine, or What Quill Did
The Lost (Class)

However, do remember that there is no rush. Alex|The|Whovian^? 09:20, 12 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Actually? I see we’ve an entry for the first episode; but not for the other broadcast episodes. I can appreciate there’s no rush. But I’m writing this comment on the Wednesday after Episode 5 became available. Sure we should have separate entries for those episode, by now? Cuddy2977 (talk) 21:51, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sure that editors will get around to creating the articles eventually. They could be created next year and it'd be no matter. Alex|The|Whovian^? 00:18, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I feel as if there should be more of an urgency to this. Not right now, but soon. There's already a backlog of five episodes that have aired, and this backlog will grow until no one will be bothered to create the pages due to there being so much work. 109.151.161.213 (talk) 13:33, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Noting that some of these are still redirects 7-ish months later I would say that's probably a sign of lack of interest in this series, but I'm sure someone will get around to them eventually. In the US they tried to tie Class to Series 10 of Who, unsuccessfully, but once the Who season ends maybe there'll be a interest in filling in these blanks. 136.159.160.4 (talk) 16:54, 22 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Naming conventions

As a long time (30+ years) fan of Doctor Who, the one nitpick that I have with this article is that it was originally Coal Hill School rather than academy. Unless the cannon has been changed, shouldn't this be corrected? Hx823 (talk) 21:31, 29 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The name's been changed for this programme. DonQuixote (talk) 23:27, 29 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ratings and future

Although I am aware that (as of June 22/17) the BBC has yet to officially renew or cancel the series, there has been some non-trivial (i.e. non-tabloid) media stories from earlier in the year that said a second series was unlikely. The article could also stand to be updated with the ratings from BBC America. I'd also contend that there were more poor reviews than positive ones for this series, but I don't know what criteria Wikipedia chooses for deciding what outlets to include. In any event, while it may be premature to report on the show's survival (though its creator Patrick Ness has stated that he considers it to have been cancelled, that's not the same as an official announcement), there is additional information out there that could be used to flesh this out. I've also seen some (again non-trivial) articles examining why the series was rejected by Who fandom and general viewership. 136.159.160.4 (talk) 16:48, 22 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
