::::I could have sworn I responded to this thread. Anyway, I was kinda confused what you're trying to accomplish, and I'm even more so now that I've read your draft copy. Is this meant to be an addendum to [[T:CAN]], or [[T:SOURCES]]? Cause they're different things. Are we talking only what we ''cover'' or what we ''allow''? You make a point to say that the books must be ''only'' about ''Doctor Who'', but I can't imagine we'd disallow a quote from a book about televised science fiction in general, would we? Also, if an [[above the line]] creative, like [[Phil Ford]] or [[Jane Espenson]] appears on a non-official podcast, like Radio Free Skaro, surely you're not disallowing the possibility of pulling a quote from there? And we can quote from ''[[The Frame]]'' or ''[[Nothing at the End of the Lane]]'', can't we? Fanzines they may be, but they've got proper interviews with key professionals, and they sometimes scoop even ''DWM'', as they have with the [[April Walker]] interview. | |||
::::Seems to me on the non-fiction side of the street that official, BBC sanction is less important than it is on in-universe pages. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}} <span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">14:45: Tue 07 Feb 2012 </span> | |||
