…Didn't we uncover that Incoming Message had in fact been released to tie in with the Rose tweetalong, even if it's narratively unconnected to Rose? Your table also includes Message from the Doctor even though you say it was "removed", so that's a bit inconsistent.

That being said, I do like the general shape of this. Very neat; "Lockdown! tie-ins" is a good term. Not sure about adding "BBC" — "BBC website", maybe, but all the Lockdown! webcasts were also, to our knowledge, ultimately overseen by the BBC, though they weren't produced thereby. So…?…

In addition… Breaking Isolation and The Castellan has returned and has brought a message from Gallifrey! are under debate respectively because the former may or may not count as an independent story, and the latter is not part of Lockdown! and we're still waiting for evidence that it was licensed (though we don't have evidence that it wasn't either, it's very frustrating). So you're right that their having independent inclusion debates means there's little point in arguing about them here.

But… ack, it all comes back to the Monk story, doesn't it? As I and others said on that thread, there are other potential concerns, but a major point of contention is whether it's part of Lockdown!. This is the thread to create the policy of what we acknowledge as a Lockdown! story.

As you know, my position there is that when the official host of an official Lockdown! tweetalong, within the tweetalong's hashtag and a very short time after the tweetalong wrapped up, posts material that seems to directly follows from stuff he talked about and teased during the tweetalong per se, then that should absolutely count as a Lockdown! story. Now that Lockdown! is over, this isn't creating any dangerous precedent. Literally all it would mean to accept this policy instead of your "it has to have Emily Cook credited for something" one would be that we get to cover one more excellent DWU story from Peter Harness. C'mon…

(Also, your setup above doesn't include the table of documentary/out-of-universe releases, but I presume that's simply because there isn't really any controversy in that area, rather than anything else?)
