Inclusion

Can we add a NOTDWU label to this page? When the story features the Doctor speed dating a Weeping Angel (that is able to talk), Cyberman and a Blowfish, somehow I don't think it's meant to be taken seriously. Notsimonpegg 16:12, July 31, 2015 (UTC)

This kind of thing is covered over at Board:Inclusion debates, so if you'd like to argue against the inclusion of this story, you can start a thread over at the board. Thanks! Shambala108 16:25, July 31, 2015 (UTC)

For those not familiar with the debate, we found that comics like ARbAON are valid sources on this wikia. OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 19:16, October 24, 2015 (UTC)

Something I still disagree with but hey I don't run the site, if the Tenth Doctor having a barbecue with K9 and a cat is classed as valid to somebody then whatever Notsimonpegg 03:10, October 25, 2015 (UTC)

This is an issue again where the difference between something being 'canon' and 'valid' must be noted. On this site, we deem that what the authors intended these stories to be in production is far more important than how silly we think they are.
Also these comics are great. OS25 (talk to me, baby.) 05:31, October 25, 2015 (UTC)
Well that's as may be, but I think the exact point User:Notsimonpegg was making is precisely that it was clearly NOT intended to be set in the DWU. 86.152.171.188talk to me 18:17, April 9, 2018 (UTC)

Superlative

I've been doing quite a bit of private research on the Who franchise, and I do believe the statement I added that ARBAON is the longest-running single story in the history of the franchise stands. They didn't even change titles over the 22 issues the story ran. 23skidoo 16:40, May 26, 2016 (UTC)


Parody

This story is cleary a joke, I mean look at the smallest planet us the universe page. - Denchen: Lord of Invalidness 23:47, November 26, 2016 (UTC)
