:: It really pisses me off that non-linear stories are flat out invalid all because two-three Admins decided, over a decade ago, that non-linear stories were ''probably'' too hard to Wikify — not that anyone even ''attempted'' to Wikify such a story — and that "nobody edited them anyway"; the lack of editing on a story should not mean something is invalid, ''that's not how it works'', as that isn't part of [[Tardis:Valid sources]]!
:: May I propose, given that the Forums have been dead for over two years without any glimmer of return — @[[User:CzechOut|CzechOut]]'s broken promises do not count — that we use this time to re-evaluate the stance on non-linear stories given that their invalidity is ''not remotely supported by policies''. This won't be a major change in policy, so, given the extenuating circumstances, so it should be acceptable to be changed on a talk page.
:: Also, @[[User:Shambala108|Shambala108]], @[[User:Najawin|Najawin]] was not calling ''you'' stupid, but calling a poorly thought out policy stupid: the policy does not reflect community consensus and is harming coverage of material on the Wiki. I applaud you for consistently upholding policy, but there comes a time when surely you can see the status quo is doing more harm than good. <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"><code>Epsilon</code></span>]][[doctorwho:user talk:Epsilon the Eternal|📯]] [[doctorwho:special:Contributions/Epsilon the Eternal|📂]]</div> 23:22, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
