I'm removing any reference to this story taking place in 3295. The only justification given for this date is extrapolation from Amy's age. That's not good enough or a source.

3295, cont.[[edit source]]
I couldn't work out where 3295 was coming from (didn't check the talk page, above), but through some digging, found this explanation:
- Amy is said to be 1306 years old, and she was born in 1989.
I think circa 3295 is fair enough (much like extrapolating dates in Class or Miracle Day, where there's a clear chronology, and this is even more precise than our "circa" treatment of the year in The Dalek Invasion of Earth), but unless Amy was born on 1 January there's just as much chance this is 3296. I think the category Stories set in the 3290s is without doubt most appropriate, so my query is more about what is best to put in the infobox. Any thoughts on "c. 3295"?
