Placing it chronologically before ''Warrior's Gate'' is just incorrect. There's nothing wrong with having sections for aborted timelines.

Timeline all over the place
The chronology here has been placed rather inaccurately. In DWM 168, Doctor Who Magazine showed how all their Fourth Doctor comic stories and short stories fit into the television chronology. Note that this was before there were any Virgin Missing Adventures, BBC Past Doctor Adventures, Big Finish Doctor Who audio stories, Nest Cottage audios, or Short Trips stories. However, going by what DWM themselves say, the Timeline is as follows:
- The Invasion of Time (TV story)
- Doctor Who and the Iron Legion (comic story)
- City of the Damned (comic story)
- K-9's Finest Hour (comic story)
- The Two-Timer (short story)
- Stowaway (short story)
- Evil Egg (short story)
- The Ribos Operation (TV story)
- The Pirate Planet (TV story)
- The Stones of Blood (TV story)
- The Androids of Tara (TV story)
- The Power of Kroll (TV story)
- The Armageddon Factor (TV story)
- Timeslip (comic story)
- Doctor Who and the Star Beast (comic story)
- Sands of Time (short story)
- Mind-Jump (short story)
- The Hole Truth (short story)
- Doctor Who and the Dogs of Doom (comic story)
- Doctor Who and the Time Witch (comic story)
- Dragon's Claw (comic story)
- The Collector (DWM comic story)
- Dreamers of Death (comic story)
- Destiny of the Daleks (TV story)
- City of Death (TV story)
- The Creature from the Pit (TV story)
- Nightmare of Eden (TV story)
- The Horns of Nimon (TV story)
- Shada (TV story)
- The Life Bringer (comic story)
- War of the Words (comic story)
- The Leisure Hive (TV story)
- Full Circle (TV story)
- State of Decay (TV story)
- Warriors' Gate (TV story)
- The Keeper of Traken (TV story)
- Spider-God (comic story)
- The Deal (comic story)
- End of the Line (comic story)
- Doctor Who and the Free-Fall Warriors (comic story)
- Junkyard Demon (comic story)
- The Neutron Knights (comic story)
- Logopolis (TV story)
That is the way that Doctor Who Magazine themselves placed their Fourth Doctor comic stories. Of course, all the later audios, novels, short stories and later Fourth Doctor comics can be placed into that timeline as well, but this article needs to go by what DWM stated. 197.88.62.248talk to me 20:02, March 19, 2015 (UTC)
A Full Life
A Full Life doesn't take place before Warrior's Gate. It's in a different timeline - if anything, it would be after, since Adric lives a long time in it. Placing it chronologically before Warrior's Gate is just incorrect. There's nothing wrong with having sections for aborted timelines. We don't have a limited number of subsections, and it's important to the accuracy of a timeline page to explain what happens in what timeline. And yes, it is important to specify that it takes place in E-Space, because it helps with dating it. BananaClownMan, if there's anyone who puts too much information on here it's you - filling all of these pages with unnecessary recaps that belong on the pages for the actual stories.
