* [[Doctor Who: 50 Years (trailer)]] - Another great example here where there's no real proof that this was intended to be set inside the ''DWU''. But you could also argue that this trailer simply depicts a [[Multi-Doctor Event]] that ''Day'' doesn't show. It's certainly more of a promotional short than a trailer, and certainly something that would qualify for ''Rule 4 by Proxy'' if some other valid fiction referenced it. But as it stands, I think it deserves to be in the middle here.

* ''[[WeLoveTITANS]]'' - I think as these were disqualified for being commercials, they might justify another debate, but I just don't know how many people WANT to go down that rabbit hole again

* [[Doctor Who and the Ambassadors of Death (trailer)]] - A little unsure about this. I think using old clips in a unique framing devise can make something more than a trailer. But I wouldn't personally be willing to put up a fight for this one, unless others agree.
* [[Death of the Doctor (trailer)]] - Also the same situation

* [[Christmas Gift Guide: LEGO set]] - This is lost media now, but I recall at the time thinking it shouldn't be valid. Same for the two other Christmas Gift Guides.

* [[Doctor Who and the Ambassadors of Death (trailer)]] - this is an important case, as this is essentially a regular trailer showing clips from the next episode, but with some new linking segments. This alone does not make it qualify for rule 1, let alone rule 4.
* [[Death of the Doctor (trailer)]] - Also the same situation
* [[Walls' Sky Ray lollies advertisement]] - I've long considered this one, and I think it's suffice to say that this a trailer for the story included in the packaging: ''[[Dr Who's Space Adventure Book]]''. It's really a commercial with the aesthetics of a fictional story, not a fictional story that happens to sell something.
