Throughout this wiki it seems as though the 50th anniversary episodes (which includes The Night of the Doctor and The Last Day as well as The Day of the Doctor) have been included in series 7. I have to admit that I've been guilty of this as well, but am currently wondering why this is.

I can not remember seeing any BBC source which considers it to be part of series 7, in fact considering it is not included in the "Complete" series 7 DVD/Blu Ray boxsets, surely this would point to it being considered separate by the BBC.

Much like The Five Doctors, which is not considered to be part of any specific season, I am therefore wondering if this wiki should consider the 50th Anniversary stories to be separate from both series 7 and 8? I realise if were to do so that it would require some back tracking and altering of several pages, but nonetheless think it is a discussion that should be had.
