From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

No articles are being "knocked for six" by their system of ordering. It's just simple housekeeping-making the wiki's in universe information as accurate as possible. This is a minor correction, most likely only applicable to the Seventh Doctor and Ace pages. No Real World pages would be reordered-order of production and order of broadcast will remain separate as they always have and should be.

Why is this perfectly sensible idea so problematic? Television story pages will continue to list notes and production errors as are required for viewing in broadcast order. Instead, these various stories will be set at their intended points in chronology. Would we place stories like ATCM incorrectly to reflect broadcast order, or rearrange Dark Eyes 2 to reflect listening order? Real world and in universe matters are completely separate, so until a Big Finish release can be placed by the costumes worn by principle characters on the cover, the broadcast order should have no dictate over in-universe placement.
