Well — as some people have said, this could have used a sturdier opening post, but all the necessary facts have come to light in subsequent discussion, so I feel confident in closing this to declare that '''the [[The Periodic Adventures of Señor 105|''Periodic Adventures of Señor 105]] | Well — as some people have said, this could have used a sturdier opening post, but all the necessary facts have come to light in subsequent discussion, so I feel confident in closing this to declare that '''the [[The Periodic Adventures of Señor 105|''Periodic Adventures of Señor 105'']] will henceforth be covered as a [[Tardis:Valid sources|valid source]]'''. | ||
Reexamination of the quotes not only from [[Cody Schell]], but from other writers on the series, do very much make it clear that the series is intended to take place in the [[Doctor Who universe|''Doctor Who'' universe]] as per Rule 4. The claim that "generally, 105’s universe is his universe, and hers is hers" might ''perhaps'' be worrisome in isolation — though it's worth underlining the good points made throughout the thread about metaphorical use of "universe" in the general case — but the ''very same interview'' makes the purely metaphorical meaning of ''universe'' clear by alluding directly to [[the Doctor]]. The Señor protects Mexico, and the Doctor protects England, and their paths generally don't cross because of that (nor Iris's), but it's all the same Earth and the same broader universe, and that's sort of the joke. One is reminded of superhero fiction where Batman and Superman's respective comics, settings, and recurring casts seem to make up different "worlds" that sometimes crossover, but the idea is still that in nitty-gritty, practical terms it's all one shared fictional world. | Reexamination of the quotes not only from [[Cody Schell]], but from other writers on the series, do very much make it clear that the series is intended to take place in the [[Doctor Who universe|''Doctor Who'' universe]] as per Rule 4.
