The majority of the flash fiction that built up ''Have You Seen This Man?'' was collected on a webpage entitled "Contact Clive", which was a place for real world people to submit brief, fictional {{w|anecdotes}} of their encounters with the Doctor, which were officially released by the [[British Broadcasting Corporation]]. The BBC evidently moderated the content, as nothing inappropriate, defamatory or fourth wall breaking was approved, thus maintaining the in-universe and consumer-friendly nature of the ''Who is Doctor Who?'' website as a whole. | The majority of the flash fiction that built up ''Have You Seen This Man?'' was collected on a webpage entitled "Contact Clive", which was a place for real world people to submit brief, fictional {{w|anecdotes}} of their encounters with the Doctor, which were officially released by the [[British Broadcasting Corporation]].
