I think we should reformulate the Subscriber Exclusives section by adding the Real Time and Shada audio storys to the list, rename it to the real name used in the Big Finish Website (Bonus Releases) and correct their numbers as well ( put 33 1/2, I, II, III, etc -- or 33 1/2, 1, 2, 3, etc.; instead of just 1, 2, 3, etc.).

Subscriber Exclusives
I think we should reformulate the Subscriber Exclusives section by adding the Real Time and Shada audio storys to the list, rename it to the real name used in the Big Finish Website (Bonus Releases) and correct their numbers as well ( put 33 1/2, I, II, III, etc -- or 33 1/2, 1, 2, 3, etc.; instead of just 1, 2, 3, etc.).

Potential reformulation of this page
So as we all know, in 2019, Big Finish reworked their website, reformulating the way this "range" is set out. On this wiki we currently have a Special Releases page and Bonus Releases page. Meanwhile, Big Finish have distributed may of the stories in these ranges between the Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Doctor Adventures. On top of this, they have retained the Special Releases format, albeit much changed from what it once was. Now it is divided into Classic Series[1], Big Finish[2] (Only The Worlds of Big Finish is relevant to us) and The Worlds of Doctor Who.[3]
How do we reflect this new organisation while preserving the ranges as they once were? Should we preserve what they were? The stories weren't originally devised as "Special Releases", that's just an arbitrary label for ease of organisation on the website. Perhaps we should just create pages of 5th-7th Doctor Adventures, move the stories labelled as such to those pages, and use Special Releases for the stories designated as such on the BF website.
