Current wiki policy for comic images is that when a black and white comics is colourised, only the original black and white image is allowed. This is a reasonable enough policy, as some DWM comics have been colourised up to three times, leading to situations where Meeps and Kalichuras have different colours in different colourizations.

However, this ideal is not used equally on the wiki:

  • The page Mara uses the CGI version of the Mara from the DVD release of TV: Kinda.

This is quite confusing (especially to visitors here[2]), as these details not from the original broadcast of these stories. And we need a standardized policy so everything is covered clearly and accurately.

We already cover Target novelisation separately as they have differences from the television stories. We have separate pages for Shada (TV story) and Shada (novelisation) with the Fourth Doctor and Shada (webcast) and Shada (audio story) for the Eight Doctor.

So I propose that either episodes with GCI additions or animated reconstructions be dubbed HOMEVID: Kinda (home video) or we do something new like RECON: The Power of the Daleks (TV story).

After all, Tardis:Neutral point of view says we must give all media equal weight.
