Correct name?[]

It's been awhile since I saw Fatal Death. Was Pryce's character ever actually referred to as the 17th Master? Or is he only referred to as the Master? 23skidoo 05:58, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

I think he's only referred to as the 17th Master in the behind the scenes doco, but never on screen. --Tangerineduel 07:22, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
This should be mentioned in the article that it's not indicated on screen, so I've added this. 23skidoo 13:05, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

A user has just moved this to Seventeenth Master without consulting anyone. Based on this conversation, it should be moved back. Tardis1963 talk 23:02, January 7, 2012 (UTC)

So this is coming years later, I know (over eleven years after the original query) but… while it's true that in a regular page the fact that the name "Seventeenth Master" comes from an invalid source would demand we just keep it at "The Master (The Curse of Fatal Death)", here's the thing: The Curse of Fatal Death is an invalid source too. Why are we picking and choosing between invalid sources? --Scrooge MacDuck 10:17, December 10, 2019 (UTC)
Several years later, and finally with some changed rules, what do we think about this? Danniesen 12:22, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
No idea. The current title seems pretty clear to me, and people might not know about 17th Master. Aquanafrahudy 📢 10:14, 25 June 2023 (UTC)

Shalka master info[]

Should the information about the master from Scream of the Shalka be removed from this? I don't think they're intended to be the same. Aquanafrahudy 📢 10:06, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
