*Real world and in-universe categories don't mix.

*If something is "non-DWU material" it cannot logically be in an in-universe category | *If something is "non-DWU material" it cannot logically be in an in-universe category: the whole point is that we're not acknwledging these works as believable sources on the DWU as we coverit! So [[Ninth Doctor (Scream of the Shalka)|Richard E. Grant's Ninth Doctor]] cannot go into [[:Category:Incarnations of the Doctor]], because he's not playing ''the'' Doctor as that character is defined at the page '''[[the Doctor]]'''. He's portraying the same fictional character from a real-world perspective, but that source is not one we acknowledge as saying something about the fictional universe built outwards from ''[[An Unearthly Child (TV story)|An Unearthly Child]]''. | ||
