From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
I might not understand you correctly, but if you ask why is there a "real world" label in all articles about Doctor Who stories, then it's simply because these stories are filmed/written/recorded in our world. Such thing as "In the Forest of the Night" is not present in DWU (or at least is not mentioned), but the events that it shows ARE a part of DWU. This label doesn't mean that the story is "set in the real world", but that the story itself is not a part of DWU
