Terraqueous Annuals[[edit source]]
Hello!
I'm an administrator of the Wiki.
First off, note that if you are the editor of the Annuals, yourself, it was improper of you to add the note about them to "Doctor Who annual", regardless of whether the information itself belongs there. You should familiarise yourself with our policy on this subject, Tardis:Don't wikify your own material.
By the same token, formally speaking, we cannot simply take you at your word that licensed DWU elements were used in these publications with the authorisation of the rightsholders. Of course, so long as these books weren't licensed to use Doctor Who itself, they're still "fanfic" as far as we're concerned and can't get full coverage, but if they truly represented lawful usage of the licenses to several DWU concepts, I think an overview page on the series, separate from "Doctor Who annual", might be acceptable. However, we do need an external source for this fact before anything can proceed. Scrooge MacDuck ⊕ 12:02, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
- Hello. I was not aware that they contained licensed elements but, as Scrooge pointed out above, that does need an external source. Do any of the licensed elements feature in their own stories without any other, unlicenced, elements? If so, I feel that that would make those individual stories worthy of coverage.
- Which issues(s) of Doctor Who Magazine have the Terraqueous Annuals been featured in? Now that I think about it, I faintly remember reading about them in an issue but I can't remember which so a reference would be handy. Bongo50 (aka Bongolium500) ☎ 14:22, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
