Talk:60th Anniversary Idents
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Validity
I'm not sure these idents should be valid. They seem a bit too metafictional, and not in a "metafictional but still plausibly in-universe way" like other idents and short scenes. Fourteen uses his sonic screwdriver to conjure up the broadcast date of The Star Beast [+]Loading...["The Star Beast (TV story)"], for example.

- Oh and this page should have a dab term. 14:01, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
- Or should it? If they each have their own title (โฆwhat's the source for these), it strikes me that this should just be a series of page and each of the two idents should have its own page. Handily this demonstrates that the Sonic Ident is completely fourth-wall-breaky and a non-starter for validity, while Impossible seems kosher to me. Scrooge MacDuck โ 19:47, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
- I did a quick Google search for the titles and I've found nothing. 21:21, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
- Hi, I'm the one who made the page originally - apologies if it's not quite up to snuff, it's my first one! I included them both in the same page, rather than two seperate ones as they're part of the same campaign - similar to the 2009 Xmas idents - and though you could argue that the Sonic one isn't valid, I consider them both to be so, as they both take place in the same location. The titles aren't official, I made them up for ease of communication. If any of this isn't the correct procedure, please correct, I'm still understanding the rules and policies.
