:DWM shouldn't be the only source on these things, as they often use different naming conventions to what's established as standard (For ''[[The Edge of Destruction]]''; [[DWM Issue 5]] - ''Beyond the Sun'', [[DWM Issue 276]] and [[DWM Issue 414]] - ''Inside the Spaceship''). So they're just as capable as any to 'group stories' to make a number fit than anyone.

Spoilers are strongly policed here.
If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.

There are some problems with numbering. Doctor Who Magazine confirmed that Planet of the Dead was the 200th story, however an unregistered user recently found a misnumbering in our pages which causes it to be the 201st. The only thing I can find that would change this back is that DWM counts "Turn Left" as part of "The Stolen Earth" and "Journey's End". This puts to end the debate as to whether "Turn Left" is or isn't part of it. It must be since it was confirmed that Planet of the Dead was the 200th. We'll need to make these changes won't we?

DWM shouldn't be the only source on these things, as they often use different naming conventions to what's established as standard (For The Edge of Destruction; DWM Issue 5 - Beyond the Sun, DWM Issue 276 and DWM Issue 414 - Inside the Spaceship). So they're just as capable as any to 'group stories' to make a number fit than anyone.
