Doctor Who contradicts itself all the time. We saw at least one instance of that just last night. We were told in Utopia that only Jack Harkness could survive riding on the outside of the TARDIS through the time vortex. But we saw Clara, an apparently ordinarily mortal woman, do it in The Time of the Doctor.

The DWU is massively contradictory. So on this wiki — whose goal is to cover all stories officially released by the BBC — there's no point in arguing canonicity. There are only four questions that we ask about stories — none of which have to do with the quality of the story.
