I'm glad that rules for stories are strict. It means that not any old stuff can get into the Wiki as "valid". However, I think these trailers are getting choked by that rule. Am I asking for the rule to bypass trailers? Probably not. I think we need to look at trailers ''differently'' than everything else. Imagine an all-knowing godly figure looking over the Doctor's first encounter with the Sontarans and picking out some random moments and compiling them into a trailer. It's not a valid story in itself, but it ''is'' a compilation of valid events put in some sort of order. That must surely stand for something?

I'm glad that rules for stories are strict. It means that not any old stuff can get into the Wiki as "valid". However, I think these trailers are getting choked by that rule. Am I asking for the rule to bypass trailers? Probably not. I think we need to look at trailers differently than everything else. Imagine an all-knowing godly figure looking over the Doctor's first encounter with the Sontarans and picking out some random moments and compiling them into a trailer. It's not a valid story in itself, but it is a compilation of valid events put in some sort of order. That must surely stand for something?
