What makes it particularly "vulnerable" to future changes?

My personal experience of editors on this wiki is that they are, for the most part, Doctor Who fans who will be viewing more than just this wiki as part of their interest. So, rather than "going for" simplicity, I would imagine they would make edits based on what they understand as common systems or ideas within groups of thought. The idea that Aliens of London is a standalone story is a brand new one. I doubt any fans who have watched it will understand our "need" for "simplicity", or rather our decision to treat it as a story which can be watched alone, evaluated alone and therefore featured alone in lists of stories. And even if they did, we would promptly be flooded with information about stories' "other halves" in page sections for continuity, notes, etc., rather than have episode info in one place, and story info spread in most cases of the "New Series".
