Think of it like this, if we just accept the Dr. Who films as an alternate validity in another reality, then we have a clear way to mention it on the page First Doctor. In the "alternate timelines" section, near the top.

but if we posit the show and the movies as equally valid stories of the same DWU, then we have to constantly mention the Dr. Who films in random places in the article which wouldn't make sense. Every four paragraphs we would have to say "of course, in another few accounts Dr. Who built TARDIS behind shed."

You're not arguing for that, you're arguing for the mention in a small sub-section like the alternate universes part, but without saying "alternate reality." It's semantics.
