It's not immediately apparent from the page why this book is considered a valid source. Could someone enlighten me? Jack "BtR" Saxon 10:42, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

The book uses several DWU concepts (such as naming Validium and Chronodyne) which I am assuming Jean-Marc will have needed permission to use? If not, I'm happy with it being marked invalid but the book is steeped in DWU lore. RadMatter 11:04, 24 January 2022 (UTC)
If there is no legal basis to the use of validium and chronodyne — and if there is no mention on the printed book's copyright page, we should assume that such brief mentions are just that, brief mentions, no different from a Who story namedropping Kryptonite or whatever — then it really shouldn't have a page. It just ends up as "fanfic". Please check if there's such a mention on the copyright page; if there isn't, I'm afraid this page is a goner. Scrooge MacDuck 11:59, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
