User:Chubby Potato/Sandbox/Non-narrative fiction

In-universe but non-narrative fiction, as discussed at Thread:282038. I hope that, upon the return of the forums, this will help us determine what might be newly considered valid. Some things might need individual consideration.

Although this is my own sandbox, feel free to help complete the list or rectify any errors. I do not own many of these books/sources and have had to gather information from their wiki pages, previews, summaries, reviews, and online listings, so there may be mistakes.

I have listed the following categories:

• Presented as in-universe material, where the material is portrayed as actually existing within the DWU;
• In-universe perspective, where there is an omniscient "narrator" stating things as fact, but not an actual narrative;
• In-universe perspective but cites sources, same as above but facts are attributed to the story they originate from;
• Unsure, where either the interpretation as to which above category the material should belong to is contentious, or where I know the material exists but have not yet seen enough of it to discern which category it belongs in.

Additional note: Some "features", as labelled in the annuals, are actually narrative, and so are not listed here. (e.g. Problem of the Painted Planet)

Presented as in-universe material

Miscellaneous

• The Monsters
• Doctor Who: Cybermen
  • Archive: A History of the Cyber Race (probably narrative)
• The Secrets of the Tardis
• The Brilliant Book 2011
  • Around Leadworth (currently called a short story, but I can definitely say it's non-narrative and this is wrong.)
  • The Raggedy Doctor
  • Welcome to Starship UK
  • The Calvierri Academy
  • The Wedding of Amelia Pond and Rory Williams
  • Do the Drunk Giraffe (...not sure exactly how this fits.)

  • It's You... but Disposable!
  • Justice Dept. User Guides Vehicle 6018 Teselecta
  • Twostreams
  • Handroid Cybernetic Industries
  • The Doctor's Guide to Fashion
• The Official Doctionary (possibly narrative?)
• The Doctor: His Lives and Times (partially, there is a section for each Doctor divided between in-universe material relating to their adventures, some of which is narrative, and then a separate "Behind the Scenes" section. The way to handle this in the first place needs further discussion.)
• The Secret Lives of Monsters (possibly narrative?)
• TARDIS Type 40 Instruction Manual (arguably narrative)
• The Monster Vault (presented by the Doctor as info from the TARDIS data banks, only real world info is a header for each monster saying their creator and appearances)

Doctor Who Annuals

• Doctor Who Annual 1968
  • Test from Tardis (A strange case— it's a crossword puzzle, but it says the Doctor created it for himself and the companions, and includes in-universe clues, not unlike the puzzles in contemporary annuals... I'm at least listing it.)
  • Back to the Tardis (same case)
• Doctor Who Annual 1970
  • Dr. Who's Crossword (same case)
• Doctor Who Annual 1976
  • Spaceword (same case)
• Doctor Who Annual 1977
  • Maze of Mystery (similar case, an in-universe artifact that serves as a puzzle)
• Doctor Who The Official Annual 2016
  • Friends vs Foes (yet another word game the Doctor created!)
  • Fantastic Friends (something Clara wrote. Possibly narrative?)
• Doctor Who The Official Annual 2018
  • Rooms to Rent! (might fail rule 4)
  • The Twelfth Doctor's Best Bits
• Doctor Who The Official Annual 2020
  • Time Lord Matrix (Another crossword, supposed to be part of the Matrix.)
  • Untitled (forms a narrative with the other stories in the annual, but isn't really on its own.)
• Doctor Who The Official Annual 2021
  • The Dalek Survival Guide
  • Top Five Creatures Who Just Won't Quit
  • Meet the Doctor (fails rule 4)

  • Earth-Skaro Timescale
  • Cryptography
  • Timepassers
  • The Island of Sezam

  • The Dark Side of Skaro
  • Identification Parade
  • Timepassers
  • The Time Computer (?)
  • Anti-Dalek Force Aptitude Tests
  • The Calorian Stone

  • The Enigma Factor
  • Davros: Genius or Madman?
  • Would You Believe?
  • Mental Jigsaw
  • Anti-Dalek Force Aptitude Tests
  • Where in the World?

  • ADF Aptitude Test
• Terry Nation's Dalek Special
  • Inside a Dalek
  • Illustration of Skaro
• The Dalek Pocketbook and Space Travellers Guide (reprints above features from Dalek annuals)
  • Note: I just discovered it actually adds on to them, in particular The Dalek Dictionary... also has an introduction and "interview" with Terry Nation, but he and the interviewer speak as if they live in the DWU (e.g. Nation found and translated texts from Skaro, "our galaxy", "you may meet a Dalek", etc.)

In-universe websites

Doctor Who: Battles in Time

• TBA. These are confusing.

In-universe perspective, but cites sources

• The Doctor Who Programme Guide (partially)
• Encyclopedia of The Worlds of Doctor Who: A-D
• Encyclopedia of The Worlds of Doctor Who: E-K
• Encyclopedia of The Worlds of Doctor Who: L-R
• The Terrestrial Index (partially)
• The Universal Databank (partially)
• The Gallifrey Chronicles (narrative)
• AHistory (narrative; possibly unlicensed if considered as a work of fiction)
• Lost in Time and Space: An Unofficial Guide to the Uncharted Journeys of Doctor Who (possibly unlicensed if considered as a work of fiction)?
• A Probable History of the Daleks (DW84 9) (narrative, but flows directly from an opening paragraph which acknowledges real-world elements in-text)
• A Probable History of the Cybermen (DW84 10) (narrative, but flows directly from an opening paragraph which acknowledges real-world elements in-text)
• The Doctor Who Illustrated A to Z

Unsure

• The Amazing World of Doctor Who (There are many informational features, and some mention the show while some don't. While the ones that don't could ostensibly be in-universe, the writing style (e.g. "when we first encountered the enigmatic character of the Doctor") which is still consistent leads me to believe they're not intended to be fiction.)
• The Making of Doctor Who 2nd edition
• TARDIS Manual
• Classified! (While there is some non-narrative information, it can be grouped with the narrative bits with ease.)
• Doctor Who The Official Annual 2019
  • This one's pretty unusual and I'm not sure it should be handled. Narratives, features, and games are all mixed up combined and there are hints of fourth-wall breaks.
• The Book of Lists (has a "Narrative" section for in-universe facts but I'm not sure how it's written)
• The Cosmology of the Spiral Politic (currently being discussed in Thread:280332)
• Some Design Notes? Unsure.
