- No i don't think they are as they are not part of the aired product however i see no reason not to mention them in a behind the scenes section or a new section of there own Dark Lord Xander 11:13, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
I think it depends on why the scene was deleted, which seems to be explained at the start of the clip on the DVDs. For example, some scenes are deleted/removed/altered for story reasons, and some are deleted for timing issues or emotional impact - the TARDIS coral scene at the end of Journey's End is an example of the latter.--TheOmnius 04:46, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
- They're still not part of the original story, the story that was available to everyone upon broadcast in the original country ie the UK. The deleted scenes can be addressed in the story notes, or if they have a big impact on something in a behind the scenes section.
- This goes for old stories as well as new ones, and also carries over to novels where a writer may have put a missing chapter up on the net or audio dramas with missing scenes. Same rules apply, the original is what is canon. The only exception I can think of is second edition of books where the material changes between editions (the only one I can currently think of) is Dead Romance, in its case if something is directly relating to the second edition it's just citied as (BNA: Dead Romance second edition), or something to that effect. --Tangerineduel 15:13, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Both basically show deleted content ( as in your example ) that is more or less legitimate - the only difference being that few books are trimmed down to fit into forty five minutes.--TheOmnius 15:59, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
