The idea that, if he were a character from an outright non-DW-related series, we would cover him at [[Minister of Chance]] with a {{tlx|conjecture}} tag is a fair point. But the thing is, uhm, where would that leave the current version of "Minister of Chance"? Surely we don't want a [[Tannis]] scenario where the brunt of the information the character is actually relevant for in the real world (invalid or otherwise) has to be pushed off into the "Behind the scenes" section… Would you have us move the current Minister page to, what, [[Minister of Chance (Death Comes to Time)]], to match [[Seventh Doctor (Death Comes to Time)]]? But even then, should the glimpse-and-you'll-miss-him valid version be the primary topic, over the invalid version who headlined his own spinoff? <span style="color: #baa3d6;font-family:Comic Sans;">[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|'''Scrooge MacDuck''']]</span> <span style="color: #baa3d6;">[[User_talk:Scrooge MacDuck|⊕]]</span> 20:32, 30 August 2022 (UTC) | The idea that, if he were a character from an outright non-DW-related series, we would cover him at [[Minister of Chance]] with a {{tlx|conjecture}} tag is a fair point.

:You raise a good point, but I'll admit, I ''was'' thinking of the [[Tannis]] scenario. – [[User:NateBumber|n8]] ([[User talk:NateBumber|☎]]) 20:36, 30 August 2022 (UTC) | :You raise a good point, but I'll admit, I ''was'' thinking of the [[Tannis]] scenario. – [[User:NateBumber|n8]] ([[User talk:NateBumber|☎]]) 20:36, 30 August 2022 (UTC) | ||
::That really doesn't seem tenable. We just about manage it with Tannis (although it's ugly) because we're only talking about one story, but if we take into account the Wadham incarnation… <span style="color: #baa3d6;font-family:Comic Sans;">[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|'''Scrooge MacDuck''']]</span> <span style="color: #baa3d6;">[[User_talk:Scrooge MacDuck|⊕]]</span> 20:38, 30 August 2022 (UTC) |
