Honestly, we don't need to know how linear Clara's life is. Why, you might ask? Because she's actually lived three different lives, each linear and yet somehow entirely distinct from each other. There are three seperate woman living in seperate places and time periods, but they share the exact same name and appearance. Clearly, this isn't a case of ancestor/descendant or Gwen from Torchwood, but something like Scaroth from City of Death; several individuals scattered accross time but excactly the same person. If thy are excactly the same person, then we need to merge the seperate pages together. However, you're right about not knowing how Claras' lives fit. So if we do compile them into one page, we need to make clear that we don't actually know how they/she is the same person, just that she is. | Honestly, we don't need to know how linear Clara's life is.

Honestly, we don't need to know how linear Clara's life is. Why, you might ask? Because she's actually lived three different lives, each linear and yet somehow entirely distinct from each other. There are three seperate woman living in seperate places and time periods, but they share the exact same name and appearance. Clearly, this isn't a case of ancestor/descendant or Gwen from Torchwood, but something like Scaroth from City of Death; several individuals scattered accross time but excactly the same person. If thy are excactly the same person, then we need to merge the seperate pages together. However, you're right about not knowing how Claras' lives fit. So if we do compile them into one page, we need to make clear that we don't actually know how they/she is the same person, just that she is.
At this point, I recommend that we wait 'til St. John airs, on the off-chance that this whole this will magically be solved then. Plus, this discussion isn't going to go anywhere or decide anything at all quickly enough for Tangerine to merge the pages together. Realistically, St. John will only confuse and/or tantalize us with hints, and we won't get the full picture until the finale, same as with all other Seasonal Story Arcs (the Cracks, Vote Saxon, Torchwood, etc.). Even then, if Clara continues as a companion into Series 8, we may not learn the truth about her for another year or more, similar to the Cracks and the Silence or River's identity.
