| In the BTS section there is mention of an in-universe interview between Beep and another character. Does this deserve a page of its own rather like ''[[Timothy Bold Interviews Vince Cosmos (short story)|Timothy Bold Interviews Vince Cosmos]]''?

| ::I just took a look, and it's a parodical interview with a fictional character. They mention Beep "appearing" in DWM kind of as if it was an acting job, but also as if it documented his encounters with the Doctor as truth. [[Doctor Who Magazine (periodical)|''Doctor Who Magazine'' does exist in the DWU]] but it's not really clear (to me) if this interview is set in the DWU ([[T:VS|Rule 4]]). Perhaps I could provide a screenshot somehow for others to see? [[User:Chubby Potato|Chubby Potato]] [[User talk:Chubby Potato|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 22:22, 8 April 2021 (UTC)

| :::No, that would not be proper. Copyright, you know. I'm sure interested parties can track down their own copy if you give them the issue number.

| :::That being said, it being a parody still means it should have a page, just an {{tl|invalid}} page — similar to ''[[Not Guilty (short story)|Not Guilty]]'', for example, a similar parody interview from DWM.

| | I've been meaning to mention this for a while, but I remembered this now ''purely out of chance and for no specific reason, why else'': I'm pretty sure this guy is just supposed to be [[Beep]] himself. I see no reason why, given all the specific DWM-related cameos, it would just be a random [[Meep]], especially since I don't think any other Meep has even been seen. DWM's continuity also held that Beep was the only Meep to escape the [[Wrarth Warrior]]s. But more to the point, while invalid, ''[[Who on Earth is... Beep the Meep (short story)|Who on Earth is... Beep the Meep]]''{{'}}s interviewer explicitly says that it was Beep in ''[[Party Animals (comic story)|Party Animals]]''. (Plus, even our own {{tlx|Beep the Meep stories}} has ''Party Animals''.)

| ::::Mention of the fact that Beep appeared in the DWM does not necessarily mean that this is a parody. This could be an in-universe version of the magazine. [[User:RadMatter|RadMatter]] [[User talk:RadMatter|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 22:34, 8 April 2021 (UTC)

| ::::Alright, it's a single page, and I believe I've seen more around here for discussion purposes, but it doesn't matter much. If anyone wishes to read it, it's from [[DWM 419]] and the title should be [[Who on Earth is... Beep the Meep (short story)|''Who on Earth is... Beep the Meep'' (short story)]].

| ::I'm unsure what precedents you have in mind, but it being a single page makes matters ''worse'' — it's much more excusable, in terms of fair use, to propose to show an extract of a long work, than the whole of a short work. At any rate the true problem here, beyond copyright concerns, is that "pictures of prose" simply aren't something we upload on this Wiki, and yet it is against policy to link to offsite images.
