::There's no evidence (yet) for "It's not just that he isn't in databases - nobody knows him, not the Shadow Proclamation, not the Church, not the Headless Monks, not Torchwood (apart from people like Jack and Gwen who've met him)." What River said about her pardon was that she was in prison & the authorities suddenly found that they couldn't prove her supposed victim had ever existed. She did '''not''' say the authorities didn't know whose existence it was that they couldn't prove. She did '''not''' say the authorities suddenly found themselves with a prisoner whose crime was unknown to them. What she said demonstrated that they knew she was in prison for murder & they knew enough about who her supposed victim had been to be able to check & find they'd no records of him having existed. --[[Special:Contributions/89.242.70.8|89.242.70.8]]<sup>[[User talk:89.242.70.8#top|talk to me]]</sup> 06:28, October 2, 2012 (UTC) | ::There's no evidence (yet) for "It's not just that he isn't in databases - nobody knows him, not the Shadow Proclamation, not the Church, not the Headless Monks, not Torchwood (apart from people like Jack and Gwen who've met him)."

::70, "Do we know that River is _really_ a professor?": Only dialog. The same evidence we have for her being "Dr River Song", earlier in her timeline. The organisers of the expedition in ''Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead'' had included her because she was known to be the best in her field. She was "Professor River Song" to them & they were not the type of people to have done that without checking that she really was Professor River Song & really was the best in her field. There's absolutely no countervailing evidence that she '''isn't''' really a professor. The Library expedition wouldn't have accepted her as Professor River Song on the basis of a nickname (like Ace calling the Doctor "Professor"). They were legalistic & humourless -- the kind of people who'd require documentary proof of absolutely everything. In triplicate. --[[Special:Contributions/89.242.70.8|89.242.70.8]]<sup>[[User talk:89.242.70.8#top|talk to me]]</sup> 06:50, October 2, 2012 (UTC) | |||
