::To Epsilon - the reason I mentioned "formal non-fiction publications" above was to exclude social media posts or offhand interview comments. I would consider that sort of informal banter to be completely different from, say, Monsters and Villains. If Moffat says on facebook "sure, Bernice married River Song", then that is the sort of trivia that I actually think should be confined to the BTS sections. On the other hand, press releases that happen to use social media - such as the Cwej: The Series update a year or two ago that mentioned Kwol's surname was Serenity - I would consider valid information and grounds for a page move.

::: In that case... I think it is completely feasible to cover any in-universe info as valid. | |||
::: We could do an <tt>== In-universe information ==</tt> where we outline any in-universe info given. I think it may necessitate a new prefix, or perhaps the whole [[DOC]], [[CON]], etc, group of prefixes; it may even give those ones a purpose as we're slowing switching non-in-universe citations to footnotes. | |||
::: While I think ''how'' we should cover in-universe info given in OOU sources still needs to be worked out, I think I support the ''idea''. | |||
::: And for some sources, they probably could just be covered as "(features)" and stuff, as they fall into that far edge of non-narrative fiction I outlined in [[Forum:Temporary forums/Non-narrative fiction and Rule 1]], where it is mostly in-universe but may have phrases like "in ''Thingy of the Daleks''" and so on, and they're not even flat-out invalid now, they just need case-by-case inclusion debates. I do intend to open an inclusion debate for ''[[Doctor Who: The Encyclopedia]]'' given it does have a lot of new info. {{User:Epsilon the Eternal/signature}} 16:34, 9 July 2023 (UTC) | |||
