Confusion with Captain Jack's Monster Files[[edit source]]

I removed the "Internet" section as it seemed to get the Doctor Who Files publication mixed with Captain Jack's Monster Files. This article is the only source I can find suggesting that the books and the webcasts are part of the same project. I'm adding a link elsewhere, though. 68.146.64.9 23:59, January 26, 2011 (UTC)

Narrative source?[[edit source]]

I don't own these books, but it does not seem to me that they're narrative. They seem to be more encyclopedic, and thus not a story. If this is the case, then, according to Tardis:Valid sources, {{Notdwu}} should be slapped on all the pages, and they shouldn't be covered on this wiki. Can someone who has access to these either confirm or deny that they're narrative?

After a due, if brief, inclusion debate: yeah, those are narrative alright, or rather, they contain stories. The issues themselves are neither "narrative" nor "non-narrative," any more than a particular issue of DWM. --Scrooge MacDuck 09:21, October 2, 2020 (UTC)

Are these classified as fiction or a reference books?[[edit source]]

As described it seems to be a series of reference books but I'm not entirely sure. Either way can this be noted in the page?
