Validity of The Zygon Isolation

shouldn't Zygon Isolation be treated as invalid? Rollface in 3d spac (GarfielfStuff) ☎ 16:49, November 8, 2020 (UTC)

No. There was an open thread about this before the Forum froze, blew up, unexploded, and was frozen again. But the short version is, The Zygon Isolation doesn't do anything other stories didn't do first; an in-universe Doctor Who is well-documented in valid sources even setting aside that particular webcast. It's just more brazen about it than previous stories. And Peter Harness's later comments about the webcast in DWM make it clear he considers it a valid continuation of the Osgoods' story.

Of course, there is no such thing as canon: our validity policies are choices the Wiki makes for the purposes of the writing of its articles. No one's asking you to treat it as valid in your headcanon if you don't want to. But unless some really startling new evidence is added to that Forum thread once it's open again, I don't see any scenario where we're likely to invalidate The Zygon Isolation. --Scrooge MacDuck ☎ 17:05, November 8, 2020 (UTC)

At some point there becomes such thing as ridiculously obscure pages.– The preceding unsigned comment was added by Rainbowdestiny (talk • contribs) .

Rename

As the initial creator of the page under its original name, I would like to formally support the rename tag. Specifically, I would like it to be retitled "TARDIS wiki", as per this story, which I was unaware of when I created this page. After that information, information from said story should be added to this page. Followup question: are there any other stories I'm missing that also mention our wiki? I know fourth wall breaking but VALID stories have become all the more common as of late so I suspect this is very possible. NightmareofEden ☎ 19:25, 27 November 2021 (UTC)

Oh wait, forgot that I wasn't signed in when I created that page. Well, that IP is me. Also, I created it some time before we even had a page at all for the story I linked, which explains why I wasn't aware of it (seeing as i don't regularly read DWM myself anymore). Oh well, my general point still applies even if I forgot some of the details; my general point being that I would be fully in favour of changing this page's name seeing as there's a VALID source for one that doesn't require a disambiguation name.
