From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

Hi, welcome to my Sandbox! Here's a brief tour of each page's past and present, as of September 2022, admittedly more for self-reference than others'.

  1. /1 is a staging ground for my forum threads. You can see which forum threads I've created by checking the page logs.
  2. /2[1] is a demo space to help illustrate my points in forum threads.
  3. /3[2] hosts a hodgepodge of lists:
    • a catalogue of characters who are intended to be others but aren't explicitly identified as such;
    • valid stories which reference invalid stories; and
    • non-valid licensed appearances of DWU characters.
  4. /4[3] is a table to help me wrap my head around TV Century 21.
  5. /5[4] is currently blank.
  6. /6[5] is currently blank.

There's also some sandbox pages which I'm using specifically to work on certain articles:

Finally, User:NateBumber/Sandbox/0[6] is this index.

History[[edit] | [edit source]]

  1. I've previously used Sandbox2 for the merger of Yssgaroth into Great Vampire; two reorganisations of Faction Paradox (series); a rewrite of Great House; a reformatting of Bernice Summerfield (series); a short rewrite of Torchwood (TV series); a list of deleted DWBIT Dalek Wars pages to be restored per Thread:264328; and a workspace for proposed usages of {{tree}}.
  2. Sandbox3 was formerly used for merging Eternal War and Time Lord-Vampire War, drafting BBC Doctor Who novels, and creating the combined sortable list of stories at Time Lord Victorious.
  3. In the past, Sandbox4 hosted an early version of The Doctor's early life, demonstrated the merger of Virgin Bernice Summerfield New Adventures into Virgin New Adventures, and listed open forum threads that had come to a conclusion but weren't yet closed.
  4. Sandbox5 has been used intermittently for drafting The Doctor's ninth incarnation; rewriting Iris Wildthyme (series); drafting a cancelled merger of Weapon (The Eyeless) into The Moment (see Thread:231584); reorganising War in Heaven; merging Daniel Joyce and The Doctor's father into Ulysses; adding biographical info to Pre-narrative Briefings; and prepping /Morbius I.
  5. Sandbox6 was previously used as a staging ground for reformatting TV Comic.
  6. This page was previously dedicated to Interference (novel).

Footnotes[[edit] | [edit source]]

  1. 1.0 1.1 Published as part of Obverse Sextet.
  2. The exact date of release is complicated due to the book's page on the Obverse website being placed up early at an unknown day in early April. Stuart Douglas decided not to take down this page, releasing a statement on 5 April. The book was later given a "proper" release on the 26th.
  3. Not directly branded as a Faction Paradox publication upon release.
  4. Published as part of Obverse Quarterly.
  5. While BBV continued to use the Faction Paradox logo on further Hellscape releases, they were released without the Faction Paradox license.[45]
  6. Later reprinted as part of Dead Romance.

Realities[[edit] | [edit source]]

Every Doctor Who story gives us a new picture of the Doctor's reality. Technically speaking, we could create [[The Doctor's reality (Story Name)]] for every story on the wiki which features the Doctor. But the primary question I believe we should be asking in merge-related conversations is "Is it useful to our readers to have separate pages?" In most cases, there's no reason to doubt that a story depicts the same reality as its predecessor, whether that's the previous Virgin New Adventures novel, Monthly Adventures audio, or TV episode.

But there are several notable exceptions preventing us from merging everything into a single The Doctor's reality. When it comes to continuity, tone, and worldview, the Doctor Who universe's many spin-offs and sub-series have usually been more concerned with themselves than each other. For instance, within a series such as The Monthly Adventures, one can expect to find more references to previous audios and the Classic show than the Virgin Decalogs or Doctor Who annuals. As a result, a story's predecessor often simply isn't clear. Is the first Virgin New Adventures novel, Timewyrm: Genesys, best understood as a continuation of the prior TV episode, Survival, or the prior novel(isation), The Curse of Fenric?

The result of this thought process is a discrete number of relatively self-contained chunks of the Doctor's reality, roughly mapping onto the real-world series or sets of series. It's natural that this would be the most helpful to our readers. Sometimes these pieces have ebbed and flowed into each other through shared characters or references; other times, they have gone out of their way to paint each other as separate timelines or universes. While acknowleding that most sources indicate these chunks to be the same reality, covering them separately helps to highlight the ways in which they stand on their own. TheChampionOfTime and MrThermomanPreacher have paved the way for this with the creation of pages like Virgin reality and The Doctor's reality (An Unearthly Child). I've contributed to MrThermomanPreacher's collaborative chart of these "reality" pages.

A rough list of potential and disputed diverging continuities/timelines/universes to keep track of things. Generally speaking, simple alternate timelines caused by clear changes to history (Day of the Daleks etc.) and explicit parallel universes separate from "N-Space" such as Pete's World and the Unbound Universe should not be included here; to see them go to User:Chubby Potato/Sandbox/List of realities, though that's not to say that the realities listed below may not be added there if so desired.

This page is very much a work in progress. Feel free to add or edit. Suggestions or recommendations are welcome.

Name First Appearance Notes
The Doctor's universe TV: An Unearthly Child (1963) The world of which all these realities are differing accounts or alternative versions. Per T:NPOV, each disputed reality has approximately equal claim to representing the "real" account of the Doctor's universe.
Original palimpsest universe NOTVALID: The Pilot Episode (1963) An overwritten reality and potentially the original version of history, suggested by the boy, in which the Doctor was a human who came from "some planet" in the 49th century. (PROSE: Unnatural History)
The Doctor's reality (An Unearthly Child) ("Hartnellverse") TV: An Unearthly Child (1963) The original "continuity" which begins in the very first episode with the First Doctor played by William Hartnell in Totter's Lane. Later developments establish his ability to regenerate, his disputed origin as a Time Lord from the planet Gallifrey and the conflicting accounts of incarnations preceding the First Doctor.
John and Gillian's world COMIC: The Klepton Parasites Disputed TV Comic continuity in which "Dr. Who", based on the First Doctor (William Hartnell) then the Second Doctor (Patrick Troughton), travels with grandchildren John and Gillian.
Yarvelling's reality COMIC: Genesis of Evil Disputed TV Century 21 continuity in which the Daleks humanoid "forefathers" are the blue-skinned Daleks and the Dalek War Machines were created by Yarvelling. Most notably disputed by the introduction of Davros and the Kaleds in Genesis of the Daleks. Potential connections to both the Hartnellverse and the Cushingverse.
Dr. Who's reality (Dr. Who and the Daleks) ("Cushingverse") TV: Dr. Who and the Daleks The alternative continuity home to the human Dr. Who, played by Peter Cushing.[1]
The Doctor's reality (Doctor Who in an Exciting Adventure with the Daleks) PROSE: Doctor Who in an Exciting Adventure with the Daleks Disputed Target novelisation continuity in which the Doctor and Susan settled in Barnes Common, along with many other slight or major differences.
"Dalek timeline" TV: Genesis of the Daleks (mentioned only) A potential future in which the Daleks have exterminated all other life, motivating the Time Lords to prevent this from happening by enacting the Genesis Incident.
Genesis timeline TV: Genesis of the Daleks The disputed results of the Fourth Doctor's interference in the Daleks' early history.
2-D universe COMIC: The Iron Legion The reality of the Doctor Who Magazine comic stories.
Virgin reality PROSE: Timewyrm: Genesys The reality of the Virgin Books New Adventures, Missing Adventures, and Decalogs.
Braxiatel Collection's revised timeline The divergent continuity of Big Finish's Bernice Summerfield series,
Barusa's universe PROSE: The Chronicles of Doctor Who? The universe of the Leekley Bible.
The Doctor's reality (The Eight Doctors) PROSE: The Eight Doctors The reality of the BBC Eighth Doctor Adventures novels.[2]
Infinity Doctor's reality PROSE: The Infinity Doctors (1998) The unique state of reality home to the Infinity Doctor.
The Doctor's reality (The Curse of Fatal Death) TV: The Curse of Fatal Death (1999) The divergent continuity home to the Ninth Doctor (Rowan Atkinson) and beyond.
Positive-time universe The reality of Big Finish Productions' Monthly Adventures, including Eighth Doctor's travels with Charley Pollard.
Reality (Auton) TV: Auton The reality of the Auton Trilogy.
The Doctor's reality (Scream of the Shalka) NOTVALID: Scream of the Shalka (2003) The divergent continuity home to the Ninth Doctor as played by Richard E Grant.
Auld Mortality's universe AUDIO: Auld Mortality [3]
Cyberverse TV: Real Time A divergent continuity where Cybermen become dominant in the universe, depicted as an alternate reality in PROSE: Spiral Scratch.
The Doctor's reality (The Not-So-Sinister Sponge) The reality of the "Special Occasions" stories in Short Trips and Side Steps, based on the Doctor Who annuals.
Infected timeline (Interference) PROSE: Interference et al. The timeline established by the rewriting of the Third Doctor's death.
War Era universe PROSE: Alien Bodies et al. The War in Heaven.
Post-War universe PROSE: The Burning et al. The reality following the War in Heaven. One of several competing versions of the post-War universe is the Council of Eight's universe.
Pre-Time War universe TV: An Unearthly Child[source needed] The state of reality prior to the Last Great Time War, primarily seen in the "classic series" and spin-off works prior to the introduction of the "new series".
Time War timeline The distinct, fluctuating state of reality during the Last Great Time War. Mostly sealed off from the normal universe by time lock.
Gallifrey's history (The Day of the Doctor) A potential history in which Gallifrey was in fact destroyed at the end of the Time War before history was changed so that it survived in The Day of the Doctor (2013). May or may not be related to that seen in Doctor Who and the Time War.
Post-Time War universe TV: Rose (2005) The state of reality in the "new series" in which the "Ninth Doctor" (Christopher Eccleston) follows the War Doctor, who himself followed the Eighth Doctor. Lasts at least up to the end of the Tenth Doctor's life (the RTD era).
Cracked universe (The Eleventh Hour) TV: The Eleventh Hour (2010) The damaged universe seen throughout Series 5 (the Eleventh Doctor's first series).
Starless world TV: The Big Bang (2010) The last stage of the cracked universe before Big Bang Two.
Rebooted universe (The Big Bang) TV: The Big Bang (2010) The restored universe introduced in the Series 5 finale. Presumably the current state of reality at least as far as the television series is concerned.
Lethbridge-Stewart's universe (The Forgotten Son) PROSE: The Forgotten Son The alternate timeline setting of Candy Jar Books' Lethbridge-Stewart series.
Collapsing Universe PROSE: Blood Heat Second Iteration The setting of Jim Mortimore's "Director's Cut" novels.
Cutaway universe COMIC: Down These Mean Streets A Man Must Go Continuity of Cutaway Comics' Lytton.

Footnotes[[edit] | [edit source]]

  1. Including not just the theatrical films but also The House on Oldark Moor.
  2. Divided into a countable number of epochs, including the Blonde Sam timeline, The Relic's timeline, and Infected timeline (Interference).
  3. Compare other Doctor Who Unbound universes, such as the Unbound Universe, Parallel universe (Deadline), and particularly Parallel universe (Full Fathom Five), which ties into the main-continuity 2040 timeline (The Nuclear Option) from Short Trips: 2040.

A handy table to help me wrap my head around TV Century 21 and plan the creation of pages for individual issues.
