:::You're of course right that this story is, narratively speaking, tied heavily into the relationship between N-Space and the Dawns. But the question is, ''legally'' speaking, did it have any licenses? A namedrop's not ''necessarily'' representative of a license, nor does it need to be: at least one Candy Jar book references "Cybermen" by name, because it's a one-line namedrop that's not prosecutable. The Empress could feasibly be a similar deal, as could the Looms. And the fact that anybody is ''implied'' to be a Time Lord doesn't enter into it. --[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|Scrooge MacDuck]] [[User talk:Scrooge MacDuck|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 16:01, October 27, 2020 (UTC) | :::You're of course right that this story is, narratively speaking, tied heavily into the relationship between N-Space and the Dawns.

::::Hey, I ''agree'' with you ''personally''. All I'm saying is, this case isn't ''cut and dry'', so it should be discussed in advance of any action being taken. (And don't take any of what I say personally. As I led with in my first message, we're delighted to have you! Just showing you the ropes. The sometimes-tangled-and-confusing ropes.) --[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|Scrooge MacDuck]] [[User talk:Scrooge MacDuck|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 16:10, October 27, 2020 (UTC) | |||
