Please refrain from being sarcastically mean. You can see the two Masters are different so it's up to yourself to imagine what happened. The same with the K-9 Marks. And that was the case with the Doctor too until The Name/Night/Day of the Doctor. You can clearly see the Eighth and Ninth are two different incarnations. Up until the 50th Anniversary it was up to ourselves to imagine what happened between McGann and Eccleston. With the Master, you yourself can imagine what happens between MacQueen and Jacobi. However you get the impression that MacQueen's Master regenerated into childform, as Derek Jacobi's Master said "I was a... naked child found on the coast of the Silver Devastation. Abandoned, with only this [the fob watch]". And with K-9 you yourself can imagine how he looks different each time. It's not necessarily regeneration.

But only what is shown in narrative can go on the articles (being it TV story, movie, comic, audio etc.). If something is confirmed by someone working on Doctor Who outside of the narrative, this information go to the Behind the Scenes sections.
