Steven's native time

I think this page should note the uncertainty about Steven's native time. "The Ravelli Conspiracy" implies he's from the 28th century, but that very scene also implies him to be joking/making stuff up as a joke to confuse Vicki. Additionally, "The Little Drummer Boy" has the Doctor state that World War I is four hundred years before Steven's time. The-Macra 00:04, November 22, 2016 (UTC)

Actually, the way it was written, it was speculation, which is not allowed. I can't seem to find the policy which describes it propperly, but I'm sure User:SOTO or User:Shambala108 may be able to help with this better than I. OncomingStorm12th 15:49, November 22, 2016 (UTC)

The policy against speculation is posted at Tardis:Discussion policy, not necessarily the most obvious place to find it. It's usually not a good idea to take given dates or other time information and use it to extrapolate other dates and times.
Unless I missed it, in The Little Drummer Boy the Doctor never states that WWI is 400 years before Steven's time. The exact quote, as Steven and the Doctor step out of the TARDIS, is, "The slaughter of the trenches of the First World War was an image that had easily resonated down the four centuries to Steven's time." Not quite the same thing. Shambala108 18:16, November 22, 2016 (UTC)
