Should ''[[Dead and Buried]]'' be categorised under the [[BFBS]] prefix (since it's explicitly part of that series' continuity and leads right into the next audio), or [[WC]] since it's an exclusively online release (albeit not a BBC or ''Doctor Who'' one)?

The fact it was a webcast animated special means it should be WC. Just because it leads right into the next audio doesn't mean that it should be counted as one. ''[[Lucky Heather]]'' took place during ''[[The End of Time (TV story)|The End of Time]]'' but was a comic strip rather than TV episode, so gained the prefix [[DWAM]] instead of [[DW]]. Or at least, that's how I see it. --[[User:The Thirteenth Doctor|The Thirteenth Doctor]] 11:45, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

Should Dead and Buried be categorised under the BFBS prefix (since it's explicitly part of that series' continuity and leads right into the next audio), or WC since it's an exclusively online release (albeit not a BBC or Doctor Who one)? Rob T Firefly 09:28, September 15, 2010 (UTC)

The fact it was a webcast animated special means it should be WC. Just because it leads right into the next audio doesn't mean that it should be counted as one. Lucky Heather took place during The End of Time but was a comic strip rather than TV episode, so gained the prefix DWAM instead of DW. Or at least, that's how I see it. --The Thirteenth Doctor 11:45, September 15, 2010 (UTC)
I'm inclined to agree, but held off because the descriptions at WC and [[1]] specifically mention the BBC. Now that we have a non-BBC webcast to consider, might it be time to tweak those guidelines? Rob T Firefly 14:11, September 15, 2010 (UTC)
