A fairer assessment is that the FP Wiki isn't as stringent about overlooking authorial intent as ''we'' are. The ''intent'' behind the hypercube thing was that as far as FP was concerned, the War King was both the War Chief and the Master. But of course, ''[[The Book of the War (novel)|The Book of the War]]'' was licensed to use neither, and so should be disregarded; FP Wiki, bless its heart, has its own policies with little bearing on ours, even if they had ''not'' decided that this was an issue they didn't care very much about anyway. | A fairer assessment is that the FP Wiki isn't as stringent about overlooking authorial intent as ''we'' are.

When a story which makes no reference to ''[[The Time Meddler (TV story)|The Time Meddler]]'' at all says "The Doctor and the Master were the only Time Lords ever to steal TARDISes and run away", it's hard to say if it's saying "for the purposes of this story, the Monk is the Master" or "for the purposes of this story, ''The Time Meddler'' did not happen". When a story ''acknowledges'' the War Chief's story ''and'' says the Doctor and the Master are the only two Renegades, the logical connection is much, much stronger. | When a story which makes no reference to ''[[The Time Meddler (TV story)|The Time Meddler]]'' at all says "The Doctor and the Master were the only Time Lords ever to steal TARDISes and run away", it's hard to say if it's saying "for the purposes of this story, the Monk is the Master" or "for the purposes of this story, ''The Time Meddler'' did not happen".
