Compare [[Groenewegen]]: lots of Groenewgens in the DWU named after [[Sarah Groenewegen]], but they're not in-universe counterparts of the real Sarah. {{User:Epsilon the Eternal/signature}} 01:13, 5 October 2023 (UTC) | Compare [[Groenewegen]]: lots of Groenewgens in the DWU named after [[Sarah Groenewegen]], but they're not in-universe counterparts of the real Sarah. {{User:Epsilon the Eternal/signature}} 01:13, 5 October 2023 (UTC) | ||
: If it were only the name it'd be one thing, but the IU Edwards is also drawn to ''look'' like the actor. To my mind, if we had a character called Jodie Whittaker who was drawn to look like Jodie Whittaker, she would uncontroversially get the "(in-universe)" dab even if it was a heavily fictionalised version who never played the Doctor or any adjacent role.

::: This case seems different though. As referenced in [[Barnaby Edwards (in-universe)#Behind the scenes|the BTS]] on this page, this character derived from two different people called Barnaby Edwards. I'd argue using (in-universe) as a dab, in this case, is slightly misleading, so I agree with Epsilon here.
