::I think you have a point though about the authors not knowing the stories they were writing weren't actually licensed. I would like to mention though, that even if the ''BBC'' doesn't consider them part of the DWU, on the precedent of the Vienna inclusion debate, authorial intent lies with the ''author'', not the ''publisher''. <div style="background-color:#0E234E; border: solid 0.5px gold; display: inline; white-space: nowrap;">[[doctorwho:user:Epsilon the Eternal|<span style="background:#0E234E; color:white"><tt>'''Epsilon'''</tt></span>]]''' '''[[User talk:Epsilon the Eternal|📯]] [[doctorwho:special:Contributions/Epsilon the Eternal|📂]]</div> 19:25, November 23, 2020 (UTC) | ::I think you have a point though about the authors not knowing the stories they were writing weren't actually licensed.

:::I mean, sure. That's not my concern, I think rule 4 is met, as are rules 1 and 2. It's rule 3 we have to worry about, and whether we interpret posting in a place that's explicitly for fanfic an official release if the authors didn't ''realize'' it was explicitly for fanfic because the wording was poor at the very beginning. And I dunno? Maybe? It's a difficult problem. [[User:Najawin|Najawin]] [[User talk:Najawin|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 19:31, November 23, 2020 (UTC) | :::I mean, sure.
