One Small Step..., The Toy, and numbering
So an anonymous user has been asserting that these two stories are Subscriber Short Trips. Subscriber Short Trips are not just any Short Trip released to subscribers, they are a range of Short Trips which are released alongside the Main Range. One Small Step... was not even released to subscribers, it was read on the The Big Finish Podcast. The Toy was released to subscribers, but not of the Main Range. It was released to subscribers of The Complete History. As such, it is not part of the Subscriber Short Trip range.
Handily, Big Finish have a page detailing every Subscriber Short Trip here. Does it include The Toy or One Small Step...? It does not - and so those two stories are quite clearly not part of the range.
As to whether the stories should be numbered, I don't see why not? They were clearly released in an order which can be numbered. We equally attempt to number Doctor Who television stories despite the lack of any official numbering for them. Danochy ☎ 09:07, July 1, 2020 (UTC)
- I'm asserting, am I? Baby, this is how it's been listed for months, years. I'm not the only one. Interesting you should link that page and not even fix the dates here; Big Finish lists "The Doctor's First XI" as #2 and March 2010, but it's #17 and December 2014 here? Yowzer!
- As for that last bit, this is exactly why this site has the numbering for TV stories out of whack; Heaven Sent / Hell Bent are actually separate story numbers, per reliable sources, but you lot combined them into one, putting the numbering for three entire seasons out of order. 101.116.206.59talk to me 22:54, July 1, 2020 (UTC)
- As per wiki policy, I reverted the page to its original content; no changes are to be made until this issue is resolved thanks Shambala108 ☎ 23:01, July 1, 2020 (UTC)
