"Memory TARDIS"

I would contend that "The Doctor's TARDIS (Tales of the TARDIS)" is a better name than "Memory TARDIS", as the dialogue keeps it ambiguous as to what this TARDIS really is, if it's real, a memory/dream, etc.; the Doctor is just guessing, and is unsure. TheGreatGabester 14:27, 1 November 2023 (UTC)

"Memory TARDIS" is explicitly used in the Curse of Fenric one, though it is called "a" memory TARDIS, so it ought really to be at Memory TARDIS (Tales of the TARDIS). Aquanafrahudy 📢 🖊️ 14:30, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
"Remembered TARDIS" is also explicitly used in dialogue, by Davison. — Fractal Doctor @ 14:31, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
And that name is also used in publicity material. Danniesen 14:32, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
I guess this is the question: does there need to be confirmation that this TARDIS is a memory, or is the TARDIS being called that reason enough? And on a similar note: the status of the characters themselves is nebulous, whether they're real, or memories, psychic avatars, etc. So that's why I thought making pages like Fifth Doctor (Tales of the TARDIS) could be a sensible proposition.

I don't think so. I'm fairly sure it's intended to take place in the ordinary Doctors' and companions timelines. (For example, the Seventh Doctor gives an explanation as to why he's old, which they probably wouldn't bother doing otherwise.) Aquanafrahudy 📢 🖊️ 14:45, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
Sure, but the implication here is the room may or may not be a physical location; it's left open that it could be entirely mental or imaginary. So it does complicate things somewhat. TheGreatGabester 14:47, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
