After thinking on it for a while, it occurs to me that we could be able to cover these, and any interesting IRL information about the ''K9'' franchise that they provide, on real world pages ''without'' setting the dubious precedent of a page about a Twitter blog (albeit an official, commercial Twitter page rather than a ''personal'' one). Could we not do so either in a new section in the BTS section of the [[K9]] page, or on [[Bob Baker]] and [[Paul Tams]]'s pages? [[User:SOTO]], thoughts? --[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|Scrooge MacDuck]] [[User talk:Scrooge MacDuck|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 15:30, July 26, 2020 (UTC) | After thinking on it for a while, it occurs to me that we could be able to cover these, and any interesting IRL information about the ''K9'' franchise that they provide, on real world pages ''without'' setting the dubious precedent of a page about a Twitter blog (albeit an official, commercial Twitter page rather than a ''personal'' one).

:You keep calling this “interesting” information. How is this interesting? It reveals nothing, it isn’t a story - it is an extremely minor comment towards a fan, what is so interesting about it?

Good idea, but here’s a better one; we simply don’t cover it. At all. Really, it’s not necessary. [[User:NightmareofEden|NightmareofEden]] [[User talk:NightmareofEden|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 15:38, July 26, 2020 (UTC) | |||
::@DiSoRieNTEd, you said yourself there were "hundreds more", and while I don't know about "hundreds", I did find several more after you words spurred me to go looking. At any rate, ''any'' licensed use of a DWU copyright is, I should imagine, tentatively relevant. This is especially true for K9 whose franchise has been in limbo since the cancellation of his TV series. Anything to show Baker & Tams keeping the brand alive in a tangible sense ''is'' interesting to K9 fans. | |||
::Additionally, some of these messages reveal the occasional interesting detail (from an IRL, histor-of-the-show point of view) about how his creators view K9 (for example, one features him referring to the Doctor as "the DoctorMaster", spelled without a hyphen or space). This is the sort of trivial we might want to be able to cite in a BTS section, and while we can always link offsit through "ref" tags, it's surely more in-keeping with how we usually do things that we have preexisting record of this stuff on the Wiki, if it's licensed. | |||
::Look, let's just wait for what [[User:SOTO]] has to say. --[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|Scrooge MacDuck]] [[User talk:Scrooge MacDuck|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 15:40, July 26, 2020 (UTC) |
