It is still a fact that the debate so far has been unanimous. As in, no one has disagreed, and these days if people didn't agree with something they would tell you about it. Once again, you are making assumptions about why people aren't posting. Given the personal attacks in several of the previous validity debates, it's no wonder people are shying away.

At any rate, you want a dissenting opinion? Here's mine.

I have not been convinced by any arguments above that a sequel/prequel to an invalid story could be itself valid.

And, given that we have hundreds of valid stories that are missing plot summaries, there are at least dozens of pages that could use images, there are dozens of orphaned pages, hundreds of articles needing proper citation, etc. etc. (see Tardis:To do list), I see no good coming from the incessant re-opening of closed debates that we've had recently when there is so much other work to be done on the wiki.

Also, I don't think it's particularly fair for the person who starts the thread to be calling for its closure, especially after only a week.
