I removed him in my proposal because of T:NPOV. Just because he was in a popular TV episode shouldn't make the Dream Lord "count" any more than Popplewick, the Father of Time or any number of versions of the Doctor with an ambiguous relationship to the real deal and who only appeared once.

I think the Dream Lord was originally added because he was "current" and there was an unspoken expectation that he would come back at some point during Moffat's tenure. But he didn't, and now, much as I might personally love Toby Jones's performance, he is little more than a footnote. He's the only Doctor in your proposal above not to have appeared/factored in several stories, and we want to make the template less crowded, not more. So lon gas we have the link in "More…" to a category which contains him, I don't think he really belongs.
