I think this conversation is starting to go in loops.

I suggest that someone drag out some text specifics. Anyone wanna look into the older book where this character comes from? Comparing the two directly might be useful in noting key differences. I have a feeling that isn't so, the descriptions sure don't seem to add up.

Reminds me of all those odd-ball Short Trip Doctors. Usually dark little stories with strange alternate Doctors, but still valid to us. If one of those Doctors had been called the "Twelfth Doctor," we wouldn't merge the two pages because one is still this odd little thing with red hair and sandles. They would both be "Twelfth Doctors," but surely not the same one. We don't even have the Shalka Doctor and the Cabinet of Light Doctor combined, despite both being around at the same time with similar descriptions, because the author of the later said they're not the same. So they're not. Simple as that.
