@Mewiet: I was not talking about a matter of tastes. I do like those stories, they make me laugh. My point is that their setting-out (both in script and art) is "parodistic", meaning that the stories don't expect to be taken seriously.

Another example? In Bow-ties for Goal Posts the Doctor uses his sonic screwdriver on the eyes of a soccer referee and gives him the the ability to watch every football game in the galaxy and shoot optic rays. Should we really add this among the features of the Eleventh Doctor's screwdriver? DW belongs to soft science fiction but there are limits to our suspension of disbelief.

I wouldn't be comfortable in creating the page of "Bookface", a social network supposed to connect Doctor's companions across time and space in real time. (But I will create it if we end up considering these stories valid sources).

Nor it's a matter of contradiction with other stories, we are plenty of "According to one account...".
