Factually incorrect. What you're erroneously counting as fact is The Doctor's speculation. Our sources are Clara Oswald, Oswin Oswald, and Clara Oswin Oswald which all refute The Doctor's speculation.
You cannot provide proof that they are the same woman without woeful amounts of speculation and faulty "proof."
Ahhh, but you see, that's how we roll around here. See the Doctor is a valid source. Audience interpretation of the narrative facts isn't.
It's a narrative fact that the Doctor believes there's only one girl. So that's where we start from. The person with apparently the most amount of information in the narrative, indeed the only person with a working time machine, says they're one girl. So, sure, he may be wrong or lying.
But the least controversial statement to make is, "According to the Eleventh Doctor, Clara was one girl in several different points in time who died multiple times." And for that reason, there should be one article, with all of the various Claras discussed therein, until and unless someone comes up with information that flatly contradicts the Doctor's lines at the end of The Snowmen.
