I'm not contesting that this page should be covered given that Trish and Deirdre are in it, but surely given that it isn't licensed to use the Doctor or Mrs Wibbsey it can't equate the two with Tom Baker and Mrs Wibbsey. Shouldn't Mrs Frimbly be split from Mrs Wibbsey?

I'm not contesting that this page should be covered given that Trish and Deirdre are in it, but surely given that it isn't licensed to use the Doctor or Mrs Wibbsey it can't equate the two with Tom Baker and Mrs Wibbsey. Shouldn't Mrs Frimbly be split from Mrs Wibbsey? Jack "BtR" Saxon ☎ 23:02, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
- User:Epsilon the Eternal will be better-equipped to cover the details, but I assume the 'Homeworld' principle is in effect (sorry to link to a sandbox, but User:SOTO and I aren't quite through drafting the full merging policy yet… everything already on this sandbox reflects current policy, all the same!). Magrs doesn't have the rights to the Doctor or Wibbsey, but he does have the rights to the narrative context that surrounded them in Nest Cottage, so he can use that as the legal bridge… There's probably something more substantial, but think of "Deirdre Whatsit's neighbour" as the creator-owned common property that unites the two legally-distinct aspects of the entity known sometimes as Frimbly, and sometimes as Wibbsey, in a similar way to "home planet of the Great Houses" allowing the link between "Gallifrey" and "the Homeworld" to be drawn.
