User:SOTO/Forum Archive/Inclusion debates/@comment-6032121-20181104204754/@comment-6032121-20181105190933 Yeah, but all these references are under the assumption that Death Comes to Time is, somehow, a thing that happened to the main Doctor in the main timeline. And it was decided that this wasn't the authorial intent. So they're not particularly significant, any more than a reference to the Doctor's nightmare about "his enemies chasing him through a TV show" makes Dimensions in Time valid.

Thank you immensely for providing the full quote, anyway. The question will be whether the community considers it decisive enough. (If the decision were up to me, I would — I'd say that the Death Comes to Time world is an alternate universe, and the mentions of Tannis or the suspiciously Minister-like Time Lord would be easily explained as cross-universe echoes, just like there's a Jackie Tyler both in Pete's World and the regular timeline.) So let's try and get more opinions.
