Besides, between the fact that a story explicitly showed Sherlock Holmes getting transformed into a fictional character after having really existed, and the now-famous "Every story ever told really happened" line, I think it's more or less an established bit of Whoniverse lore that most fiction was probably real at some point in some timeline. And that's without even going into the Land of Fiction!… The point is, it's ''very'' easy to make this work in your headcanon if you want to with minimal continuity-twisting. (Not that we can do that on the Wiki, obviously; just saying.) | Besides, between the fact that a story explicitly showed Sherlock Holmes getting transformed into a fictional character after having really existed, and the now-famous "Every story ever told really happened" line, I think it's more or less an established bit of Whoniverse lore that most fiction was probably real at some point in some timeline.

If the story features an alternate universe, once it's valid, we can make a page for the alternate universe, or discuss it on the talk page. After it's valid.You… can have pages about non-valid material, though (see the pages about the Curse of Fatal Death and Scream of the Shalka Doctors, for example). Even if The Incomplete Death's Head is declared non-valid we could still have a page about that parallel universe, though some would argue it might be rather pointless trivia.

If there are two incompatible accounts, we use "according to one account..."/"according to another account..." trick.
Quite.
