Tardis:Prefixes

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
• 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 BBC-made websites", such as [1]. A good example of proper usage is WC: Real Time. However, the official site has, in exceptional circumstances, put behind-the-scenes material on the official website, such as WC: Doctor Who Video Explorer. Thus the prefix can actually mean that the cited resource is either in- or out-of-universe.
