Tardis:Prefixes
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
This is the list of prefixes on the TARDIS Index File Wiki. Categories may overlap.
Television/Film/Video/Web
BBC

Real world
Generally, the following sources should be used on real world pages. However, information from these sources could conceivably be used in "behind the scenes" sections of in-universe articles.
- CON - Doctor Who Confidential
- TWD - Torchwood Declassified
- INFO - BBC DVD info texts
- PCOM - BBC podcast commentaries
- DCOM - BBC DVD commentaries
Mixed use
- WC - Webcast, by which is usually meant, "comic, prose or animated fiction, published to licensed websites", such as the BBC's official website. A good example of proper usage is WC: Real Time. However, official sites have, in exceptional circumstances, published behind-the-scenes material, such as WC: Doctor Who Video Explorer, or any one of a number of videos on the BBC America website. Thus the prefix can actually mean that the cited resource is either in- or out-of-universe. It can also be used beyond BBC websites, so long as that website is officially licensed, as with Big Finish's website.
