Obviously, as it was released exclusively online, ''Christmas Special'' was not (as of this post) published by Titan in an issue of 9D. But, at the very least, it has deep connections with that series. Is it part of the same run? Is it not to be considered part of the ''comic'' story run, but still belonging to the ''Ninth Doctor'' Titan series? It is currently listed at ''[[Doctor Who: The Ninth Doctor]]'', but that series has been taken out of the infobox here.{{User:SOTO/sig}} 23:34, January 1, 2017 (UTC)

: Yes, in fact, I do not see a proof that it was published by Titan. Seems to be a publication at the website. From the interview it feels like the writer wanted to do it and was permitted by Titan, which is not the same as a Titan publication.
: So, given that it is not even a comic and not obviously published by Titan, I removed the navbox even though the story has a very definite placement in the continuity of the 9D series.
:The point of comparison for me were ''Class'' novels, which can be placed within the continuity of the TV series, which share all the main characters, but are a separate thing. I always thought that the navbox does not jump the media. Granted, we may go from a n episode to a minisode to a Children in Need special, but at least they're all TV. Here we go from COMIC to PROSE, and I'm not sure that's allowed.
:Here's another boundary case: short stories published by BF. They switched from PROSE to AUDIO. Wait a minute, navbox there goes from one to another. It seems that I was wrong about the media homogeneity.
: But at least one needs the publisher to be the same. Do you really see this story as published by Titan? [[User:Amorkuz|Amorkuz]] [[User talk:Amorkuz|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 23:47, January 1, 2017 (UTC)
