Vortis Visit Timeline

So Doug86 recently updated the continuity section of a number of stories to add in the TVC story On the Web Planet. The placement it has been given in the order of the Doctor's visits seems to have up-ended the previously theorized order, so I was wondering what others thought.

Currently the continuity has been edited to place the order of stories as The Lost Ones, The Lair of Zarbi Supremo, On the Web Planet, The Web Planet.

From what I've seen though, The Lost Ones seems to be his first visit to the world. This is followed by The Web Planet (Vortis is still in far away from Earth and near it's moon and the Menoptera have yet to return), then The Lair of Zarbi Supremo (Vortis has begun traveling through the stars and the Menopterra are present).

So what do we know about the status of Vortis in On the Web Planet (is it still in it's own star system or is it traveling?, are the Menoptera living on the world or still on its moon?) that could help us properly place that story in the timeline?

I thought it was clear that the order in which the Doctor visited Vortis was not the same order that Vortis experienced them. For this, see the Vortis article. Doug86 12:47, September 16, 2009 (UTC)
