User:SOTO/Forum Archive/Inclusion debates/@comment-188432-20130514042227/@comment-188432-20130515184259 This debate wasn't brought because this is "different". It was brought because of its obvious similarity to other advertising campaigns in this genre, and even under the DWU franchise. Nobody is talking about deleting the article She Said, He Said. This is, rather, about whether the information conveyed within the piece can be used to inform other, in-universe articles. If we don't know when and where Clara had these feelings about travelling with the Doctor, then how can we possibly add them to the article Clara Oswald? Are these purely thoughts? Or did these events literally happen? Or is it just a tone poem designed to advertise the finalé in an unusual way?

See, you say it's an unusual narrative use of soliloquy, but I think it could equally be thought of as a sly way to get an extended advertisement. An advertisement told in a narrative style is not the same thing as a short narrative.
