From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

Highlighting various points from Fwhiffahder's posts re Iris:

  • It can be difficult or impossible to decide which one is in some stories, or whether it's a new one entirely.
  • The problem is that nothing about Iris is ever going to be consistent or linear.
  • The fact that there are multiple positions kind of demonstrates my point: it's too complicated to pin down into individual incarnation pages.
  • But it's up for debate which Irises are different ones.

And to stress a point I keep having to make at various points on this wiki: There is no definitive chronology in the DWU, so there is no way to properly create a timeline for any characters. There's a reason we got rid of timeline sections on in-universe pages.

Based on the difficulty of determining which Irises would go on what pages, I'm ruling against this idea and closing the thread. There are only two Time Lords that have individual incarnations on separate pages; the Doctor is a unique case, and as I posted above, there is a proposition to merge all the Romana pages anyway.
