::In "[[The Day of the Doctor]]", regeneration was only briefly seen at the end when the war incarnation regenerated. Isn't this the first time it was the focus of the story?

::What exactly is a regeneration story? When someone regenerates, when the Doctor specifically regenerates or when he spends a whole episode delaying it? Naturally, it is highly debatable. If the first, then that trivialises the occasion. If the latter, then only two stories (at a stretch) can be classed as regeneration stories (''Twice Upon a Time'' and ''The End of Time'') I personally side with Danniesen ; ''The Day of the Doctor'' featured the War Doctor regenerate and he interacted with all the his other incarnations; the middle is indeed the perfect ground to settle on.

::::That one had me wondering too, so I looked up the wiki definition at [[regeneration]]: "Regeneration was the process by which Time Lords and others renewed themselves, causing a complete physical and often psychological change." So going by that definition, it covers when anyone, even non-Time Lords, regenerates. As far as the category goes, it should cover any story that has regeneration in it; it doesn't have to be a feature of the entire story.
