Does this truly count as a TV story if it has never been broadcast on TV; instead first released in a cinema screening?

:I've been researching this question but it's only raising more questions. We've had longstanding stories like ''[[First Night (TV story)|First Night]]'' (and all other DVD extras) dabbed as TV stories even though they've never appeared on TV. I thought this would be true of ''The Doctor's Meditation'' as well. In attempting to get a solid answer on this after seeing this on the talk page, I've found (home videos) is in fact a dab term, but there does not seem to be a dab term for a situation like this one, where ''The Doctor's Meditation'' first aired in a theatre. However, all story pages are still required to have dab terms.

::I've yet to come across a dab term for releases like this. The dab (film) is apparently an in-universe only dab. I do seem to vaguely recall a debate about ''[[The Night of the Doctor (TV story)|The Night of the Doctor]]'' having a (TV story) or (webcast) dab because it was initially released as a webcast, but it was originally ''intended'' (and indeed later broadcast) to be premiered on TV and the threat of press leaks caused an early webcast release, so I think the decision on that was to leave it as (TV story). I know that [http://www.bbcamerica.com/schedule/?week=1&dow=friday BBC America plans to air ''The Doctor's Meditation'' tomorrow], but I'm not sure TNOTD situation is applicable here because the original intended release was in movie theatres, for which no dab exists as far as I've found.
