User:SOTO/Forum Archive/Inclusion debates/@comment-24894325-20180907002807/@comment-24894325-20181006224915 I guess this distinction can be viewed as follows: were stories intended to be variable or were they intended to be in a fixed form but were later changed due to unforeseen circumstances?

Stage plays are an example of the first type. Every next performance is expected to be different from the previous one.

TV episodes are expected to be fixed, but may later be modified, may turn out to be slightly different on different platforms (there was also a case of a typo in iTunes credits but not in BBC ones). Still, we ignore these potentialities because they are not supposed to happen. Some Third Doctor episodes are only available in black and white now, but this was not the original intended change. Similarly, these stories (those released so far, to be precise) are not intended to be changed in the future even though it may happen.

I also agree that the mechanics of moving gems are out of bounds for this wiki. They are not part of the story.
