Yeah, I'm pro adding any and all Dirk Gently media that features Chronotis and/or St Cedds. NOT everything featuring Dirk himself though, for much the same reason we don't have pages for every story featuring [[Lady Penelope]] or almost every episode of [[Roland Rat: The Series]]. Crossovers still shouldn't make the entire universe being crossed over with DWU. However, as for those stories featuring explitly DWU elements, whether a character or a college, then yes, absolutely, very much pro adding them. Also I dispute "scope creep" simply because historically Adams's other work HAS been of particular interest to Doctor Who fans, and Gently most of all, largely BECAUSE of those Shada links! Even the adaptations that leave of Chronotis play into this (Netflix's Gently is 100% meant to be based on how Americans perceive the Doctor, what with his whole "quirky British scientist" gimmick). So yeah. Pro inclusion here (only for the actual crossover stories though). 17:59, 3 November 2024 (UTC) {{unsigned|NightmareofEden}} | Yeah, I'm pro adding any and all Dirk Gently media that features Chronotis and/or St Cedds.

: Would you then argue that, had ''Class'' not been set in Coal Hill, only episode 1 should have been covered, treated as a crossover, it being the only episode featuring DWU elements? {{User:Aquanafrahudy/Sig}} 18:37, 3 November 2024 (UTC) | |||
