Reader and member submissions were accepted by Lyon. </p><p>On 9 October 2006, Lyon announced that he would no longer be updating the news pages because his "heart was no longer in [the constant news collection and editing] anymore." The initial plan was that most of the website would be archived, with only the forum and pages related to the annual Gallifrey One convention continuing to be updated regularly. However, on 2 November 2006, Lyon announced that the site's news page would be returning in a new form, with Lyon as editor-in-chief and a committee of reporters from the US, UK and beyond.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The news page was relaunched on 1 December, along with the newly incorporated <i>Web Guide to Doctor Who</i>, a manually maintained listing of <i>Doctor Who</i> websites. Previously this web guide had been a separate site, edited by Paul Harman over ten years. </p><p>On 21 January 2007, the website became affiliated with the popular <i>Doctor Who</i> <a href="/wiki/Podcast" title="Podcast">podcast</a> Doctor Who: Podshock. </p><p>On 27 August 2007, Lyon announced that the majority of the site would no longer be updated; its most active parts would split into four separate websites, with the rest of the site to be archived. Specifically, the Outpost Gallifrey News Page was relaunched as the Doctor Who News Page (at www.doctorwhonews.com); the Outpost Gallifrey forum became the Doctor Who Forum (at www.doctorwhoforum.com); the address www.gallifreyone.com was retained for the Gallifrey One convention in Los Angeles; and the Web Guide to Doctor Who continued at www.doctorwhowebguide.com. However, it was not until 1 December 2007, that those changes came about when the front page became a single links page to the various new sites, and Outpost Gallifrey was formally closed as a one-stop site. As of 2008<sup class="plainlinks noexcerpt noprint asof-tag update" style="display:none;"><a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Outpost_Gallifrey&action=edit">[update]</a></sup>, the component sites of the former Outpost Gallifrey were still referred to by the site's old name.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>On 2 June 2009, Lyon announced that the site, including the news page and forum, would close completely on 31 July 2009, save as the portal for the Gallifrey One convention.<sup id="cite_ref-closing_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-closing-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The closure was noted by <a href="/wiki/Charlie_Anders" class="mw-redirect" title="Charlie Anders">Charlie Jane Anders</a> of <a href="/wiki/Io9" title="Io9">io9</a>, who described Outpost Gallifrey as "the best Doctor Who fansite".<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Discussion_forum">Discussion forum</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Outpost_Gallifrey&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Discussion forum"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>As of June 2009<sup class="plainlinks noexcerpt noprint asof-tag update" style="display:none;"><a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Outpost_Gallifrey&action=edit">[update]</a></sup>, the site's discussion forum had over 40,000 registered members, of whom over 15,000 were considered "active". (During the UK broadcasts of the <a href="/wiki/Doctor_Who_(series_4)" class="mw-redirect" title="Doctor Who (series 4)">2008 series</a> of <i>Doctor Who</i>, there were over 31,000 active members). The forum was actively moderated. The forum had close contacts with the production team and writers associated with the series, several of whom had been known to post on the forums. In April 2005, when the news of <a href="/wiki/Christopher_Eccleston" title="Christopher Eccleston">Christopher Eccleston</a>'s departure from <i>Doctor Who</i> broke, discussion on the forum became so heated that Lyon shut the section down for two days; the closure was reported in <i><a href="/wiki/The_Daily_Mirror" class="mw-redirect" title="The Daily Mirror">The Daily Mirror</a></i>.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The British news media regularly used the site to garner examples of fan reactions to <i>Doctor Who</i>.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p><i>Doctor Who</i> lead actor <a href="/wiki/David_Tennant" title="David Tennant">David Tennant</a> admitted in a 2005 interview with <i><a href="/wiki/Doctor_Who_Magazine" title="Doctor Who Magazine">Doctor Who Magazine</a></i> that he had visited the Outpost Gallifrey forum shortly after his casting had been announced, to gauge fan reaction. "Well, when it was announced, I admit, I did go on Outpost Gallifrey to have a quick look, because I just couldn't help myself, and everyone was encouraging me to go on and see what the fans were saying about me," he told the magazine.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The fan discussions in the forum were sometimes critical of aspects of <i>Doctor Who</i> production.

In 2004, when the first photographs of the new series' TARDIS prop were revealed, there was a vigorous discussion of the prop's historical accuracy on the Outpost Gallifrey <i>Doctor Who</i> discussion forum, an example being that the prop's windows were too big compared to real-life police boxes. In the episode "<a href="/wiki/Blink_(Doctor_Who)" title="Blink (Doctor Who)">Blink</a>" one character tells another that the TARDIS is not a real <a href="/wiki/Police_box" title="Police box">police box</a> and mentions that the windows are the wrong size as evidence.
