When the Faction Paradox series began being covered on this sites many of the elements were rightfully separated onto different pages - for example; Great Houses instead of Time Lords, and Timeships instead of TARDISes. This was because the FP writers do not have the rights to use these properties, however, some elements have been overlooked:

  • Kelsey Hooper's page has a lot of information about the FP version of Cousin Ceol and Sojourner Hooper-Agogô - despite no evidence that they had any rights to use this character.
  • The Homeworld, mentioned in FP (and appearing in The Book of the War, is merged with Gallifrey - despite no evidence that they had rights to use Gallifrey.
  • Auteur and Astrolabus contain information about each other.

There's probably more examples, but I think these pages need separating immediately. If the writers had no rights to use these characters / concepts, and went to special lengths to alter their names to get past the copyright, then we have no right to cover them on the same page as the original. The information should be retained to behind the scenes sections only.
