There's a new interactive adventure thing called History Hunt on the Doctor Who website. It breaks the fourth wall so I'm not sure how we proceed with it. I think it deserves a page, but I'm not sure if others would agree, and I don't know if, much like Attack of the Graske, we can count it as canon. The link is here. --Mc hammark 20:11, August 14, 2010 (UTC)

it should get a page, games such as the last dalek do so go for it! Revanvolatrelundar 20:12, August 14, 2010 (UTC)

I think at least the story that you get as a prize when you complete it should get a page. Not sure how it should be listed though... Short trips? Have a look. http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/history_hunt/doctor_who_the_war_of_art.pdf SinkinSoon 16:45, August 17, 2010 (UTC)

Hmm... that does complicate things. I think both should have a page, but how to class the prize is complicated. I don't think it would come under short trips though. The Thirteenth Doctor 16:55, August 17, 2010 (UTC)

The History Hunt and the story should be judged separately. The story The War of Art is a piece of fiction and is easily dealt with as The 14th Doctor says. As for categories; Category:Web-based short stories and Category:Stories released in 2010.
The History Hunt should also get a page, if it well and truly breaks the fourth wall (unlike say the skirting that Music of the Spheres does) tag it with a Template:Nc ({{nc}}), which stated it's not part of the DW universe. --Tangerineduel 16:03, August 18, 2010 (UTC)
