:::Also, the idea with ''Pit-Stop'' possibly being okay with Rule 2 isn't that it's "not specific enough" for us to know it's ''the'' Heather — rather, I had in mind the precedent set at [[Talk:Legacies (short story)]], or with the [[Cyberman]] namedrop in ''[[An Ordinary Man (novel)|An Ordinary Man]]'', that it's alright for a story to ''namedrop'' things to which it doesn't have the license, so long as all the elements that are actually and explicitly ''involved in the plot'' are licensed. Nardole is very much involved in the plot of ''The Search for the Surgeon'', so I don't think it makes the cut. But if somebody had a story licensed to use Hydroflax exclusively, and it included a one-line mention that one of Hydroflax's victims was Nardole, ''that'' would probably be okay.

:::: Thanks for the clarification of the rationale, and the additional info regarding your license. By that, I'm happy to support "A Better World" being covered on this Wiki. I'll need to keep that decision re. Magrs/Wildthyme in mind from now as that's an interesting nuance to matters. | |||
:::: With that explanation re. Heather, I think there's a case for "Bad Day at the Office" then. Beyond that, I'll leave the rest of the potential arguable ones alone for others better versed in the lines between what does and doesn't work with our policies. | |||

Dont think it would be fair at all to cover some releases and not the rest. Whatever happens keep them all at the same place. | Dont think it would be fair at all to cover some releases and not the rest. Whatever happens keep them all at the same place. | ||
