From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

In looking to close this thread, I read through the last three years of discussion and considered both sides. In the end, David Richardson's comments stood out to me the most:

I know some people refer to it as a Doctor Who spin-off. I do not see it as a Doctor Who spin-off. It's its own thing. It's not set in the Doctor Who world at all.

There is no reading of that that puts Vienna in the DWU without some serious twisting of the common sense definitions of "spin-off" and "world". Narrative considerations aside, the creative intention is clear: Vienna is not set in the DWU, and will not be covered by this wiki under rule 4 of T:VS.
